If he's so great and Ukrainians love him, why would he need to cancel elections?

Like Israel?

Sure. Why do you ask? I care about one country, the USA. Everyone else is less and not deserving of our tax dollars, military support, or anything else. No long-term entanglements.

Well, in Zelensky's defense, the Ukranian constitution apparently specifies that elections can't be held while martial law is in effect. Currently I believe he has declared martial law in effect until August and no doubt will extend it. But given the possibility that he could be voted out, and if he is being monetarily rewarded as lavishly as some suggest he is, that could be a hell of a good reason to keep martial law in effect indefinitely?

Disclaimer: I am not saying that is the case. But just based on post on social media and message boards, one has to consider that as a possibility.

A Page from History: Israel's First National Elections

On the day of elections, all factories and business establishments in Israel were closed from 8 A.M. to midnight to permit all residents to go to the polls. The government proclaimed election day a national holiday.

On this day: Israel held first ever elections for Knesset in 1949

Israel's first election for Knesset was scheduled to take place in October of 1948, but was postponed due to Israel's bloody and long-fought War for Independence.
