Speculation about a potential resignation of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky intensified following a public disagreement with President Donald Trump, which was instigated when Trump called for elections in Ukraine despite the country’s constitution prohibiting such an event under martial law. The conversation about Zelensky’s possible successor gained momentum, with several figures emerging as potential candidates in the absence of Zelensky. These individuals include Mayor of Kyiv Vitali Klitschko, Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada Ruslan Stefanchuk, Head of Ukraine’s GUR military intelligence agency Kyrylo Budanov, and ambassadors such as Valery Zaluzhny, former Commander-in-Chief of Ukraine’s armed forces. Each candidate possesses a distinct background and popularity among the Ukrainian populace, and their potential involvement in the nation’s leadership adds layers to Ukraine’s political landscape during a tumultuous period.
