Original Note:
Zelensky is not "refusing to hold elections". Elections can't legally be held in Ukraine under martial law, which is made necessary by the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine. Zelensky is the head of Ukraine's executive branch and can't himself change laws or the constitution. https://foreignpolicy.com/2023/07/11/ukraine-democracy-wartime-elections-russia-zelensky/
