Ukraine has completed most technical preparations for postwar vote

Ukraine has completed approximately 60–70% of the legislative groundwork for its first postwar elections, with the main unresolved issues requiring political decisions rather than technical preparations, lawmaker Mykyta Poturayev, chairman of parliament's Committee on Humanitarian and Information Policy, told Radio NV in an interview published on Oct. 12.

Ukraine has completed most technical preparations for postwar vote

Ukraine has largely completed the technical preparations for its first elections following the war, according to lawmaker Mykyta Poturayev. However, political decisions remain the main outstanding issues. The Technical groundwork began in 2025 and has been underway for about a year, with only political decisions remaining to be made.

No elections are planned to take place within two months, but work on legislation governing the elections resumed in December 2025. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that lawmakers could begin preparing changes to election and referendum legislation in February, pending the progress of peace negotiations.
