Zaluzhnyi calls talks about his participation in the elections premature
Former Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Valery Zaluzhny considers it untimely to discuss his possible participation in the elections during the ongoing war with Russia.
What Zaluzhny said.
In a speech at Chatham House in London, he stressed that the war, not domestic political processes, remains the main priority.
Zaluzhnyi stressed that it was inappropriate to discuss electoral prospects during the war.
He also spoke out sharply about the international dimension of political discussions.
«It's very bad when the issue of Ukraine's domestic policy becomes a matter of international discussion,» he said.
According to the former commander-in-chief, such topics should remain an internal affair of the state.
«It should be a taboo,» Zaluzhny said.
Context.
The name of Valeriy Zaluzhnyi regularly appears in political discussions about possible future elections. At the same time, Ukraine is under martial law, which makes it difficult to hold a national vote.
