Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky may press criminal charges against former military chief Valery Zaluzhny if he challenges him for the presidency in the upcoming election.
Despite the ongoing conflict with Russia, Zelensky plans to run for re-election, capitalizing on his current 52% approval rating.
Zaluzhny, currently Ukraine's ambassador to the UK and considered Zelensky's main rival, has not revealed any political ambitions.
However, sources suggest Zelenskyās administration has offered Zaluzhny a prominent role in his party if he refrains from running.
If Zaluzhny enters the race, he could face investigations, including one related to the fall of Kherson to Russian forces in 2022.
The switchover to the European electricity network, which Baltic leaders said held geopolitical and symbolic significance, came more than three decades after the collapse of the Soviet Union.

The now-disbanded Task Force KleptoCapture was originally established to weaken Russian financial networks following Moscowās 2022 invasion of Ukraine.

Russia has firmly rejected a reported peace proposal from President-elect Donald Trumpās advisers that included delaying Ukraineās NATO membership by two decades and deploying European peacekeepers to establish a demilitarized zone. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, speaking to TASS, emphasized that Moscow would not entertain such ideas, stressing the need for āreliable, legally binding agreementsā addressing the conflict's root causes. Lavrov reiterated Russia's stance on a neutral, non-aligned Ukraine, citing preconditions outlined in the 2022 Istanbul talks and acknowledging territorial realities, including the integration of Donetsk, Lugansk, Kherson, and Zaporozhye into Russia. The statement underscores the widening gap between U.S. and Russian approaches to resolving the Ukraine crisis.
