Some national news outlets worry — without irony — that President Volodymyr Zelensky could be voted out of office if Ukraine holds elections.
Uhm…
“Donald Trump is demanding Volodymyr Zelensky hold elections that could oust him from office as the price of peace,” laments the Telegraph.
“There are concerns that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky could be ousted from office after President Donald Trump said that Kyiv should hold elections,” writes Newsweek.
What?
Back in late 2023, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky told his people that the very idea of holding a presidential election the following year was “absolutely irresponsible” while fighting the war with Russia.

Imagine had Trump canceled the 2020 election due to covid..what the commie media would have said..but they are fine with Zelenskyy keeping power forever..want to know why, because without him the money laundering cant continue
Zelensky can always do an online search for countries which don’t extradite.
I don’t care if he wins or loses the election, but I don’t think that he’ll ever hold one. So if this is a pre-requisite for peace negotiations the peace negotiations will never take place.
That is why the media helped with the Biden coup.
Lincoln held an election during the civil war with a Confederate army within striking distance of Washington DC...I think Ukraine can have an election...
But Ukrainian polls say that Little Z-Man has 99.9% favorability!!!!
The only reason for a politician to never want to hold an election is when they know they are going to lose.
No. The negotiations will take place but without Ukrainian involvement. Sometimes a proxy state needs to be reminded that it is a proxy state.
The CIA's pet Ukrainian despot will take his medicine and LIKE IT.
Reportedly they are afraid of Valeriy Zaluzhnyi, the General that sounds anything but light in the loafers.
Zaluzhnyi to Zelensky, may be like McArthur to Harry Truman.
An article claimed Zelensky thinks the General might run against him if there is an election.
What if neo- Nazis who are more handline win?
Then we let the Russians kill them all.
If that’s how it winds up it will likely be a PR disaster in spite of how you may feel about it. Why not do everything possible to get the parties in the same room to at least get the optics right?
Makes sence.
Ukrainian Jews need to get out of there like my Great- Granddady did, and go to Israel.
The negotiations may be in the form of surrender documents if
the US walks.
The political commentator/comedian Dave Smith has a saying:
“If you want to know who America’s next enemy will be, take a look at who we’re funding now.”
Ukraine is going to be a HUGE problem 10 or 15 years down the road. They will be a destabilized shit hole with lots of left over weapons, ubiquitous corruption and a grudge.
Turkey will be the enemy.
The EU can just cancel the election as they did in two other countries recently....
