From: New Voice of Ukraine πΊπ¦ The presidential elections in Ukraine could be held as early as May 25, 2025, though the President’s Office denies preparations for the vote, according to The Economist on Nov. 13.
Kyiv politicians are discussing two possible dates for elections: January 20, 2025, the day U.S. President Donald Trump is inaugurated, as a potential moment for a ceasefire and lifting of martial law, and May 25, 2025, the earliest possible election date, according to The Economist.
The President’s Office denies preparations, and sources remain skeptical about the feasibility of elections in 2025. Some preparations, such as regional election headquarters working on candidate lists, have begun.
While most sources are cautious about the timing, some believe the elections are necessary, though they fear a backlash from the Presidentβs Office. Polls show that incumbent President Zelenskyy may struggle in a second-round matchup against Ambassador Valeriy Zaluzhnyi, though he fares better against other opposition figures.
