Vapor pressure doubt

I know that vapour pressure doesn't depend on volume of container but here since the piston is lowered, doesn't it mean that we are giving it some external pressure due to which the vapors of water will condense into liquid. Hence Vapor pressure should decrease right?

read what i said lol shouldn't the ext pressure increase
