Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky’s popularity among Ukrainians is decreasing and his chances of re-election are decreasing. A British newspaper reports this Times.
Almost three years later, with Ukraine’s front-line defenses in danger of being destroyed, Zelensky’s popularity has waned and few citizens see him as the next president, the article says.
Citing a poll, the newspaper states that only 16 percent of Ukrainians would vote for Zelensky’s second term re-election, while 60 percent would like him not to participate in the elections at all.
Although Zelensky won the presidential election in Ukraine in 2019, corruption scandals and the Ukrainian public’s tiredness of the Russia-Ukraine conflict seriously affected his reputation, according to The Times.
The authors of the article note that Zelensky’s critics accuse him of not responding quickly and effectively to wartime challenges, as well as hiring people from the Kvartal 95 comedy studio as consultants.
The authors stated that the politician’s rating could drop even further if the United States accepts the request to lower the mobilization age to 18.
The simple fact is that Ukraine is not mobilizing or training enough troops to make up for its battlefield losses while keeping up with Russia’s growing military, the newspaper’s source said.
Putin before statedThat Ukraine’s leaders are completely illegitimate.
