Direct speech: “Everyone in Ukraine understands that this (elections – ed.) cannot be done until the war is over, or the legislation must be changed. I believe that the elections will be held immediately after the end of martial law. This is according to the law. Or the parliamentarians must gather and change the legislation , which will be very difficult to do, because society is against it.”
Details: In particular, Zelenskyi explained that society is against holding elections, as it is necessary to create an infrastructure for voting by 8.5 million Ukrainians who have gone abroad.
Direct speech: “Millions of people are in the occupied territories. I’m not even talking about the occupation of 2014, but about the occupation that happened right now. What to do with those people? It’s a difficult question. And one of the most unfair is how to vote without a million soldiers. That is, it’s impossible.” .
Details: The president also noted that in order to hold elections during the war, it will be necessary to change the voting system, in particular, to consider the possibility of online voting. However, this idea raises concerns because of potential cyber attacks and other threats.
