Is Selenskyj threatening the backing? Ukraine demands presidential elections!

In Ukraine it is bubbling: The mood against President Wolodymyr Selenskyj is increasing. After the presidential elections scheduled for March 2024 were postponed indefinitely due to the continuing war, the unrest grows among the population. Lieutenant Wjatscheslaw Kurbanow loudly demands elections and thus sums up the dissatisfaction of the citizens: "We have tolerated it for a long time, but now it is enough." More and more people in Ukraine are calling for a ceasefire and negotiations with Russia, such as OE24 reported .

The situation is also difficult by the critical voices of memories of the several years of fighting in the country, in which thousands of civilians died. Olexander Kornijenko, deputy President of the Parliament, fears that elections will not be possible during a war, since democracy is suffering: "These elections would be terrible. It is absolutely not feasible to secure democracy in the middle of shelling by Shahed drones and rockets."

Selenskyj's vision for 2025

Despite the domestic political turbulence, Selenskyj remains optimistic and has already formulated a vision for the end of the Ukraine war. According to Fr.a>, the war could theoretically end in 2025 if Russia and the United States also show the conflict. "It won't be an easy way, but I am confident that we will have every chance to do it next year," said Selenskyj at the international conference on nutritional security in Kiev. He also emphasizes the need for global support, especially countries in the global south to end the war.
