Zelensky Warns Elections Amid War | Europe News

Published 19 hours ago
Description

Zelensky warns that holding elections during wartime would be a national disaster, calling it a “tsunami” that could split Ukraine apart — a stance he’s pushing back against even as pressure mounts from global leaders. His former defense minister sparked the debate by suggesting elections, leading to political chaos including the firing of Ukraine’s army chief. With martial law already suspending elections under the constitution, most Ukrainians agree — polls show just 15% support voting while fighting continues. Practical hurdles abound: how to vote for displaced citizens and soldiers in occupied zones? Plus, Russia’s escalating missile attacks and dwindling U.S. interceptor deliveries threaten Ukraine’s defenses. The nation prepares for a critical summit with European allies to ramp up pressure on Moscow.
