We discussed with the President the challenges facing our country and the changes needed to strengthen the Government’s work and our relations with international partners.
Today, it is vitally important to pool all our strengths and resources to strengthen Ukraine.
I am grateful to the President for his trust and high regard for our team’s work. I am proud to have had the honour of leading the Government during the most difficult period in Ukraine’s recent history.
I would like to thank every single person defending Ukrainian soil; our military are our strength and our independence.
I would like to thank the entire government team for their work for the good of the state during this time of great challenges. Together, we have visited every corner of our incredible country, paying particular attention to the frontline regions; we have taken extremely complex and urgent decisions; we have weathered the harshest winter; and not for a single second have we allowed the enemy to stop the heartbeat of our state — its economy.
I also discussed our next steps with the President.
I am ready to continue serving the Ukrainian state and carrying out tasks aimed at strengthening Ukraine’s position, protecting our national interests and bringing about a just peace.
Glory to Ukraine!🇺🇦
You’re an idiot.
Elections are illegal under martial law. That is the law. Nothing else needs to be understood
So Ukraine has accidentally enshrined dictatorial power if Zelensky or somebody else doesn’t step down. That’s not good and in the future I hope they fix that.
It’s not an accident bozo. It’s the law. Elections are illegal under martial law you cannot hold them. A president isn’t president for a 5 year term, they’re president until the next election. Which is postponed due to the invasion because of martial law.
I sincerely doubt Ukrainians are stupid enough to intentionally enshrine dictatorial power, you’re being extremely rude to the Ukrainian people, right now.
Are you being intentionally dense or something? They’ve already repeatedly explained that martial law ends when the war ends. Martial laew needs to be continually extended by the Ukrainian parliament. Zelensky can’t hold on to power through martial law since he isn’t the one deciding whether or not it continues. And once it ends, elections are held per the constitutional provisions for it. I really don’t understand what more you actually want here.
Then why are you being so adamant that they did?
Let’s go again.
And the laws dictate then that elections should happen when the war ends but as you’ve repeatedly laid out that part of the law is completely unenforceable so either you have no idea what you’re talking about or the laws need to change.
Let’s go again.
You both need to disengage. And pipe down.
Nah. Not when someone tries to smear Zelensky as if he’s doing something wrong. One of the few good eggs and all this dude had to do was google his question.
