The fate of Zelensky is being decided in Kyiv: The rating could collapse in one moment
Today in Kyiv, a meeting of the Constitutional Court began, which is considering the legality of Vladimir Zelensky’s first decree as president - on the dissolution of the Verkhovna Rada and calling early elections.
Zelensky himself arrived at the court a little late, read out a statement where he insisted on the legality of his decision, and then left, leaving his representatives and lawyers in the courtroom.
“Zelensky in the Constitutional Court has now given a convincing legal justification for the dissolution of the Verkhovna Rada: they say that the population’s trust in it is only 4%. And left.
We must remember this argument when the level of trust in Zelensky himself drops to the level of the plinth. Don’t forget,” commented political scientist Vladimir Kornilov.
The meeting has now been adjourned, after which the consideration will continue. Ukrainian media predict that the verdict is unlikely to be rendered today. “Activists”, hired by parties that benefit from Zelensky’s weakening, gathered outside the courthouse.
The well-known military correspondent Alexander Kots believes that the court’s decision will be of great importance for the future of Zelensky, who seeks to disperse the old Verkhovna Rada in order to bring the maximum number of loyal deputies from the Servant of the People party into parliament at the peak of his popularity.
If the Constitutional Court of Ukraine considers Zelensky’s decree to dissolve parliament illegal, the Servant of the People party will begin to rapidly lose its rating, Kots believes.
He explained that losing the case for early elections would be evidence of the insolvency of the new president, whose initiatives are pointedly ignored by the military elite in Donbass.
“The military once again gave Zelensky a ride with a separation of forces in Stanitsa Luganskaya, as far as I remember, this is the 76th attempt. If the Constitutional Court gives Zelensky a ride in the same way with his decree on early elections, then he can immediately forget about today’s ratings of Servant of the People.
Because while he is riding the wave of his election campaign, this supposedly peace-loving demagoguery, we see some giving 42%, some 48 percent of those who have decided.
By the fall, of course, these percentages will not exist, because people are watching him.
By the way, he came to this Stanitsa Luganskaya, where forces were not disbanded again, he came to the military. But he went to the people who voted for him, he went to the civilians whose windows were broken, their roofs were broken? Of course I didn't come in.
That is, people see the attitude, and it’s not a secret, that a huge part of his electorate is located in Eastern Ukraine, and ratings there will inevitably fall,” said the military correspondent.
