Ukraine’s Verkhovna Rada passed a resolution Tuesday affirming that national elections cannot take place while the country remains under martial law, directly countering remarks by former US President Donald Trump questioning the legitimacy of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s administration. Additionally, the resolution formally extends Zelenskyy’s mandate until martial law is lifted.

Trump can shove a stick up his backside. When your country is being turned into an active warzone by the army of a dictator, I sincerely doubt elections are the thing on peoples’ minds. They want a competent and compassionate leader, and Zelensky is clearly that, no matter Trump’s insidious seeding of doubt.
Damn, ConOLD must be jealous. Somebody with an actual mandate.
