The Ukraine War thread

How many countries hold elections while being invaded?

It's actually against Ukraine law to hold them...

Hey Putin could allow free and fair elections by completely withdrawing!

"Man accused of disinformation hits back with more disinformation"

 

[TommiG88]

If Biden was coming out with utter garbage that Trump has been spouting since his return, the media would question his sanity.

The preferential treatment this man gets. We live in a worrying world

I question if Zelensky really wants the war to end? He is getting so much in foreign aid, over $30 billion in financial aid pretty much no questions asked and due to the constant continuations of martial law, is able to outlaw political parties and prevent any elections which ensures that he stays in power. His popularity has fallen, from 90% at the start of the war to about 55% currently and does not have a majority of support in the Eastern regions where the war has impacted the people the most as well as a greater percentage of ethnic Russians who are in favor of re-uniting those areas with Russia. He also is faced with polls that show that about 40% of people in Ukraine do not trust him.

I have never heard him talk about or mention a realistic end game to what has become a World War 1 style stalemate. He just keeps asking for more and more.

You're confusing Zelensky with trump

Funny, isn't it?

Zelensky won his election with 73% of the vote, numbers trump can only dream of with his paltry 48% not even half the votes.
