Wartime elections would 'destroy' Ukraine, says Zelensky

Summary

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky said in remarks made public Sunday that wartime elections would be a "tsunami" that would "destroy the country". Kyiv has been engulfed in a political crisis over the summer, triggered when Zelensky fired popular defence minister Mykhailo Fedorov, who days later called to organise a vote.
