Imagine how funny it would be, if the western "pro-democratic" leaders would support an authoritarian sadistic clown who despite banning the opposing political parties still couldn't get the parliament to vote in favour of

The statement also indicates that President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's mandate is not questioned by the Ukrainian people or the Verkhovna Rada.

...in front of those same leaders he invited? That shit would be hilarious as fuck if it were true, but obviously "pravda.com.ua" is a Russian disinformation site, so we're safe ;)

...or maybe "hot phase of war" or "a comprehensive, just and sustainable peace is ensured in Ukraine" is not so easily timed when it happens? That one day the war is on, the next everything is fine?

From what I hear, in the US having to wait for hours in line or having to produce a government ID(?) are often seen as voter suppression. But having to vote in a recently quieted warzone with bombed roads, also possibly queue for hours due to recovering infrastructure, possibly with expired or lost forms of ANY ID, a large amount of people just settling back into civilian life and 2-4 million probably still abroad (of current 5-6M), sounds perfect timing for voters and oh so quick to organise.

But I guess we'll see within about a year of whenever things hopefully settle down.

(Also obviously Russia, with Putin or his protege in power for the last 25 years, with a totes believable 88% support in the latest election, is a model of political freedom now?)
