Ukraine Ex-Minister Calls for Wartime Elections

Mykhailo Fedorov, Ukraine's former defense minister, has called for elections during wartime, despite a law prohibiting them, citing a governance crisis and challenging President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

Mykhailo Fedorov, who was dismissed as Ukraine's defense minister in July, has made a public call for wartime elections, arguing that the country needs to find a way to hold them despite the ongoing conflict with Russia. This move is seen as a challenge to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who has been under pressure since Fedorov's dismissal sparked nationwide protests. Fedorov's call for elections is motivated by his belief that the current system of governance is in crisis and that Ukraine cannot allow the war to dictate when elections can be held.
