Ukraine Won’t Be Rebuilt in a Day

header1 Country Overview

Freedom House is closely monitoring for when elections for the Verkhovna Rada (originally scheduled for October 2023) and the presidency (scheduled for March 2024) may take place. Under the Ukrainian constitution, Ukraine is prohibited from holding elections while the country is under a state of martial law, which has been in force since February 24, 2022, when Russia launched its full-scale invasion. There are also significant concerns that millions of Ukrainians, including those abroad, in the military, or under occupation, could not securely and meaningfully participate in elections if they are held during the war.
