The Ukrainian president said that now "is a time for battle" and that holding presidential elections in such circumstances was not appropriate.

    Again, what good would this do if you are in a war torn country that cannot secure its elections?

      Pretty sure these people aren’t arguing in good faith

      I don’t really care. Irrelevant to my point, which has nothing to do with Zelensky or Ukraine.

        Correct, and the discussion is about Zelenskyy and Ukraine.

          The person I replied to cited a constitution. My reply is about constitutions. Anything after that is a discussion about constitution where people keep bringing up Ukraine for some reason.

            Some reason, like the main reason this thread existing being an article on Ukraine.
