ZELENSKY HOPES TO HOLD ELECTIONS IN DONBAS IN 2020

12 February , 2020  

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said he has the feeling that elections can be held in Donbas this coming fall simultaneously with local elections across the country; at the same time, he did not rule out that the conflict in Donbas could be frozen.
“Local elections held simultaneously across the country unite it. This is an important symbol for me,” Zelensky said in an interview with Interfax.
“Elections in Donbas are possible only after the military actions there are ended and the foreign armed units are withdrawn,” he said.
