Ukraine Parliament Extends Martial Law

The Ukrainian Parliament has decided the nation’s state of martial law will not expire later this month, extending it a further 90 days.

Martial law will last until May 13th in Ukraine at least — and likely much longer than that, as the national Verkhovna Rada confirmed a law approving a presidential decree made on Monday. The measure passed with an overwhelming majority in the parliament where 11 opposition political parties were suspended in 2022, accused of fomenting “division or collusion” by President Zelensky.

As noted by Ukrainian state media, the original martial law was activated on the day of the Russian re-invasion on February 24th 2022, and was then extended on April 25, August 23, and November 21 of that year, then in 2023 on February 19, May 20, August 18, and November 15.

Not good news for Mom and the Speedster.

Zelensky’s going to get thrown out by his own military in a month.

[Sacajaweau]

I think we will see a coup...All martial law does is shut down any elections...and I think the military is getting anxious.

Don’t give DC any ideas.

Only 11 parties were outlawed out of more than 300. Those 11 parties supported the pro-Russian invasion including one led by Viktor Medvedchuk who happens to have Putin as a godfather to one of his daughters.

Its called a country fighting for its existence with 20% already occupied by the Russians.

No elections and martial law, so much freedom! Maybe the USA can be like Ukraine some day.

[Tench_Coxe]

"Maybe the USA can be like Ukraine some day."

Then at least Mitch McConnell, Graham, et al would put up bills that actually help the United States.

We're already halfway there with human trafficking and biolabs, not to mention activities to eliminate political opponents.
