Wait, you actually, unironically, without trolling, while being sober, in all seriousness, think democracies should hold elections while being invaded? Thank god my country has a law that makes that illegal (not Ukraine, don’t know about Ukraine, but in any case that is extremely idiotic thing to do, so good on them for not doing it)
Apparently Ukraine also has in their constitution that elections cannot be held while an invasion is in progress. So even if one were inclined to think like the idiot above they’re just following the rules that have already been established.
Zelensky has actually publicly said to Trump, that if the United States can guarantee 60 days of ceasefire (apparently that’s how long it would take to hold an election) than they can have an election. Knowing, that of course that the United States can’t guarantee anything when it comes to Russia, because Trump is Putins lil bitch.
It’s also worth noting that historically, populations are hesitant to replace governments during a time of occupation even if the administration had been relatively unpopular prior to the invasion. Not that I think he was unpopular. It is generally understood that during a war the government don’t have an awful lot to do with military decisions so changing the government is not productive.
The only reason Russia would agree to a ceasefire is if they thought the result would return a pro-russia politician, which is of course unlikely to happen.
