Ukraine’s former defense minister Mykhailo Fedorov, recently ousted in a government shake-up, is boldly demanding elections proceed even as Russia’s invasion rages on, arguing democracy can’t be suspended by war. Despite legal barriers banning wartime polls, Fedorov insists Ukraine must find a safe, legal path to vote — a stance that stirs controversy and protests. Known for his drone warfare advocacy and anti-corruption crusade, he also criticized systemic governance failures without naming names. His defiant message comes just after President Zelenskyy appointed a new defense chief, Yevhen Khmara, signaling Fedorov’s exit from power. With Zelenskyy silent on the video, the episode underscores the mounting political tensions as Ukraine grapples with how to uphold democracy amid relentless conflict.
