    Zelensky didn’t suspend elections. The Ukrainian constitution suspended elections–the country is under martial law due to invasion, and their constitution disallows elections under martial law. In order to hold elections, Zelensky would have to disregard the constitution.

    Assuming every nation’s constitution is the same as the United States and then judging actions based on that error is some high-level cultural arrogance.
