Harnwell: Ukraine’s Parliament votes to extend martial law for a further 90 days

Few MSM news operations have reported the tenth extension to Ukraine’s martial law regime, as approved by Ukraine’s Parliament yesterday. And none have mentioned the significance of this specific extension in particular.

Martial law will now be extended from February 14 until 13 May 2024. The significance is that presidential elections were set for 31 March — but under Ukraine’s constitution, elections while martial law is in place are prohibited.

So in less than two months President Zelensky’s democratic mandate will have expired, and he will officially be an unelected dictator.
