Abandoning allies

I’d like to see that.

Everything I see is that the Ukrainian constitution and parliament made that call.

I guess the Ukrainian constitution provides that elections can be postponed during war. Israel has something similar.

I don't blame Zelenskyy for suspending elections. A bunch of people in a confined polling place seems like a target Russia would hit, and the election would be the subject of all kinds of intelligence operations and interference. And Zelenskyy's approval was 57 percent last I heard.

Was it 57% or 5 to 7%?

Let's go with > 4 percent.

Geezus will you guys just quit? 2nd graders in the sandbox arguing over nothing.

And for the record, England postponed all of their federal elections for the entirety of WWII. I don't see the difference here. Except that German troops weren't on English soil during the war. As opposed to Ukraine.

On polling, I did see one today that had Zelensky's approval at 49% after Friday's ambushing. Certainly better than the claimed 4%.
