I’m thankful that people in my country are some combination of too prideful and arrogant to ever allow us to be in a position where we are dependent on another country to „secure“ our elections.

Is there any word on likely candidates?
I imagine the logistics of an organising an election with part of your territory under occupation, a hostile power looking to interfere and a sizeable chunk of your population overseas will be fairly onerous. Best of luck to them, assuming they get the required guarantees.

As we in Ukraine have bitterly learned, partners can’t ensure shit. We are on our own.

How can there be free elections in Ukraine when they don’t even allow Russians to come in and vote?!! Thank you for you attention to this matter.

I hope they do deep background checks to root out any putin installed puppets

I’m fully convinced that America is only pushing for elections so that Russia can install a puppet

Logistically, how do you hold an election? With the territories that are in the battlefields or illegally under Russian control, does that mean those Ukrainian citizens can’t vote? Also, how do you protect voting sites from being targeted by Russia to scare off people from actually voting?

Why though? It’s in the Ukrainian Constitution to suspend elections in a time of war.

The Ukrainian constitution stipulates that they withhold elections at times of war. This was in effect before Zelenskyy was elected.

This US demand that Ukraine hold an election in the midst of an ongoing war is ridiculous and should be considered a “poison pill” out of hand. It’s an illustration that Trump is not negotiating in good faith.

I would not trust the trump administration with this security. Look to Europe.

And now a special news bulletin from our hypothetic reporters. the war is over in Ukraine. They have surrendered as new elected president ГФГДLLҰ ЍФҬ Д ЯЦSSЇДЙ PЦPPԐГ has decided to become a Russian state. Trump has said been quoted as saying „quite frankly I won this war.“ Probably…

After trump, I would avoid any election

There should be elections in the occupied parts under international supervision and independent counting…
Sorry I was just dreaming.

If America does the ballot box ‘security’, it could be a dry run practice before rigging it back home.

Fuck sake the US is a blot on the world right now.
There is no demand in Ukraine for an election. This is just Putins demand fed through his agent Trump.

Anyone urging him to hold elections during the war is pushing Russian interests first and foremost. Modern elections can’t even fight back foreign interference under normal circumstances.

This man is exhausted. The world owes him this.

Will this directly lead to peace? If not, stupid.
[Zelensky has already announced he will not stand in any future elections. “My goal is to end the war, not to continue running for office,”](https://defence24.com/geopolitics/zelensky-will-not-run-for-re-election-who-will-become-the-ukraines-new-president)
Oh great so the Russians can fucking steal it and annex them. Fucking stupid, hope they never forgiving the yanks for this shit.
The man would probably give a lot to not have to ever deal with Trump and his idiots again.
Probably worried about being Epstien’d if he agreed to peace.
Hasn’t trump already betrayed every single deal he’s made with Ukraine? Why even do this at all?
who tf is gonna stand in that election, when the man has nearly been assassinated a half dozen times?
