Perhaps all political careers must end, inevitably, in failure. But few politicians have had careers as meteoric, as surprising, as consequential or as heroic as that of Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky. In just five years he has gone from TV comedian to victor of the biggest presidential landslide in his country’s history to inspiring wartime
I mean they banned several rival political parties and Zelensky’s term expired months ago.
The two retorts i usually get to those respectively are “opposition parties are russian” and “ukraine’s constitution allows the halting of elections till there is peace”
