Ukraine war: Zelensky ready to step down after Russian conflict ends
South China Morning Post ^ | 9/25/2025 | Reuters

Posted on 09/25/2025 7:17:12 AM PDT by marcusmaximus

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said in an interview published on Thursday that he would be ready to step down after the war with Russia is over.

“If we finish the war with the Russians, yes, I am ready not to go [for elections] because it’s not my goal, elections,” Zelensky told the Axios website in a video interview.

“I wanted very much, in a very difficult period of time, to be with my country, help my country. My goal is to finish the war.”

Zelensky said he would ask Ukraine’s parliament to organise elections if a ceasefire was reached.

A presidential election due in 2024 was suspended in line with martial law, introduced in Ukraine after Russia’s full-scale invasion began in February 2022. Zelensky, a former comedian, was elected in 2019.

Russia has repeatedly questioned Zelensky’s legitimacy as a leader as a result.

“Keep in mind he’s an unelected dictator.”

>>>>>>>>>>>>><<

Do you also push for the narrative the green isn’t green, but that *green” is “orange” instead? What’s the point in attempting to change reality?

Here is TRUTH that even Zelensky’s opponents have officially acknowledged:

“Ukrainian comedian Volodymyr Zelensky has scored a landslide victory in the country’s presidential election.
With nearly all ballots counted in the run-off vote, Mr Zelensky had taken more than 73% with incumbent Petro Poroshenko trailing far behind on 24%.”

Keep in mind he’s an unelected dictator.

Therefore, he can't be believed.
