Original Note:
Ukraine's constitution bans elections under martial law, in place since Russia's 2022 invasion. Martial law suspends elections for security, focusing on defense and war efforts. Elections now could aid Putin by weakening Ukraine’s defense and legitimizing Russian occupation https://rm.coe.int/constitution-of-ukraine/168071f58b. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/feb/20/ukraine-elections-start-of-war-volodymyr-zelenskyy?
