Original Note:
Zelenskyy is not illegitimate. Due to the ongoing illegal invasion of Ukraine by Russia, Ukraine cannot hold another election due to Russia occupying parts of Ukrainian territory & targeting civilians. The Ukrainian constitution also prohibits elections during martial law. https://war.ukraine.ua/articles/not-sacrificing-democracy-why-ukraine-cannot-hold-elections-under-the-martial-law/ https://foreignpolicy.com/2023/07/11/ukraine-democracy-wartime-elections-russia-zelensky/
