Ukraine's parliament today approved a resolution to hold elections in the country only when a comprehensive, just and lasting peace is ensured, thus rejecting US President Donald Trump's proposal.
Ukrainian MP Yaroslav Zhelezniak said the decision was supported by a majority vote of 268 MPs, while 12 abstained.
The resolution on supporting democracy in Ukraine in the face of Russian aggression stipulates that elections cannot be held under martial law, emphasizing the need for continuity of the current leadership.
"Russian President Vladimir Putin is solely responsible for the failure to hold free, transparent and democratic elections in Ukraine with the participation of international observers ," the resolution states.
The resolution comes after US President Donald Trump called President Volodymyr Zelensky a "dictator" in a post on his "Social Truth" platform on February 19, accusing him of refusing to hold elections and repeating false claims about the war in Ukraine.
