Muh democracy, right dems?!? And they are worried about President Trump while supporting this dictator?!?
Cognitive dissonance is their speciality.
So why is Obama, President of the US and Ukraine at the same time, who’s the puppet masters It’s not Biden or Zelensky
He doesn’t have time for elections, he too busy fighting for democracy.
Besides, most of the males are on the frontlines, so it would be unfair and dangerous to get them together to vote.
Taken from Sadness *** Vladimir Zelensky has stated that Ukraine must first achieve a just peace before citizens can go to the polls. The Ukrainian leader’s presidential term expired in March 2024, but he cancelled elections due to martial law, which he’d imposed in 2022. ******* same play book plan that Biden/Harris has for our nation in the next 60 days, it’s on my bingo card
So the constitution allows you to start a war or continue a war that gives you a constitutional ability to suspend elections. Hmm. Doesn't that push you toward wars so there is never an election? Sounds like you are definitely a democracy guy. (Facist, tyrant)
Vladimir Zelensky has stated that Ukraine must first achieve a just peace before citizens can go to the polls. The Ukrainian leader’s presidential term expired in March 2024, but he cancelled elections due to martial law, which he’d imposed in 2022.
Zelensky addressed the issue while presenting his Internal Resilience Plan in the country’s parliament, the Verkhovna Rada, on Tuesday.
“We all know that the Constitution of Ukraine and the law do not permit elections during wartime, and no one in the world has demanded and does demand this from Ukraine. However, there are some people in Ukraine who may be so ‘hungry’ for [elections] that they want to fight within our state more than for our state. They seek political disputes in the trenches, like in film studios. This is detrimental to Ukraine,” he stated.
“First, Ukraine needs a just peace, and then Ukrainians will hold fair elections. We must prioritize the common interest over any personal desires,” Zelensky added.
The Ukrainian leader emphasized the importance of a comprehensive strategy to ensure the country’s internal stability. This includes strengthening the front lines, bolstering the defense industry, securing the economy and financial system, enhancing the information space, ensuring justice, improving regional governance, and other critical issues.
US could use elections to oust Zelensky – Russian intelREAD MORE: US could use elections to oust Zelensky – Russian intel Zelensky’s chief of staff, Andrey Yermak, who has been described in Western media as “the real power broker” in Kiev, stated that presidential elections would be held immediately after the war ends. According to Verkhovna Rada Chairman Ruslan Stefanchuk, the next presidential elections would take place within 60 days after martial law is lifted.
Last week, Zelensky extended the period of martial law and mobilization in Ukraine until February 2025, amending the relevant legislation for the 13th time since the escalation of the conflict with Russia in February 2022.
“First, Ukraine needs a just peace, and then Ukrainians will hold fair elections. We must prioritize the common interest over any personal desires,” Zelensky added.
Oh, the irony!!
Yes, he speaks from both sides of his mouth.
