Who wants to bet that there will not be a “a full ceasefire” before Fall?
RemindMe! September 22, 2025
As an American I will not be voting for him – likely would depending on competition if I was Ukrainian though 🙂
I guess it would depend on the challenger.
If the challenger was 100% pro Russia, would you vote for them OP?
The thing about drafts is that they are really fucking unpopular even when you are the one being invaded.
But either way it doesn’t matter. Ukraine is gone. Used and thrown aside like many other proxy client states once they no longer serve a purpose for America.
Also pretty wild Ukrainian government thinks it can hold elections while being invaded but the Israeli government can’t hold elections even when they are the ones doing the invading.
I have my doubts there’s going to be an actual ceasefire of real significance.
Based on my very limited understanding of who might run, especially since Russia is going to do everything it can to influence the vote towards a pro Putin stooge, I would prefer that Zelenskyy stay around as long as possible to push back on Russia and the EU step up and fill the void the United States has left
He puts US politicians to shame, especially the maga cowards in the current regime. He didn’t back down and gave 500,000 Russians the anti-invasion vaccine.
You couldn’t ask for a better leader.
Who would you like to replace Zelenskyy?
Who would you like to vote for (assuming they run and you get a chance to vote at all)?

Why not?
I’m not Ukrainian and I’m not really read in enough on him to have much of an opinion. It seems like he’s done rather well with a bad hand.
I think he’s one of the best leaders of our generation, and you’re a fool if you think there’s a better option.
But: you do you. Everybody gets their vote.
As a person and as a candidate, relatively positive. I’m not aware of specific ‘fuck this guy’s vibes coming from most Ukrainians.
Who knows in the fun world of Russian disinformation and election meddling efforts.
And who knows in regards to the long-term sovereignty for Ukraine as a whole.
