#Putin claims #Zelensky is illegitimate and that decisions should be made by the head of the Rada.

An astonishing level of cynicism - Zelensky was elected in fair elections and cannot be removed during wartime per the #Ukrainian Constitution.

Meanwhile, Putin ignores his own illegitimacy: #Yeltsin’s "Successor" operation, сastling with #Medvedev, killing opponents, #media control, and clinging to power by force.
