Original Note:
It’s correct that Zelensky expressed that he would only be holding election if he recieved spegific aid but the post can be misleading implying that he is holding democracy hostage in exchange for aid. Ukr law prohibits election during war bc money should be used for the war https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/zelenskiy-says-elections-could-happen-under-fire-if-west-helps-2023-08-27/ https://foreignpolicy.com/2023/07/11/ukraine-democracy-wartime-elections-russia-zelensky/
