Ukraine was supposed to hold presidential election today. However, it, as well as the election to the Verkhovna Rada, was canceled by Zelensky.
His powers thus expire on May 20. On this day he must resign, and the de jure head of state will be the speaker of the Verkhovna Rada Ruslan Stefanchuk. Otherwise, Zelensky will be considered a usurper. And the next day, a person who committed a crime with the intent to illegally retain power. Ukrainian political analyst and former adviser to Leonid Kuchma, Oleh Soskin, said that this is a "black day" for Zelensky.
