Volodymyr Zelensky has said he is considering a second presidential run, stressing that the decision depends on when and how the war ends. Elections remain suspended under martial law, but Zelensky argues they could be organized within 60–90 days once fighting stops or firm security guarantees are in place.
Conditions
Resolves “Yes” if by September 30, 2026, Volodymyr Zelensky formally announces his candidacy or files official documents to run in the next Ukrainian presidential election, as confirmed by Ukraine’s electoral authorities or major international media. Otherwise — “No.”
Results
Resolved "No". Between the market's publication and September 30, 2026, Volodymyr Zelensky did not formally announce his candidacy or file documents for the next Ukrainian presidential election. No election was scheduled: martial law, under which presidential elections cannot be held, remained in force and was extended until October 31, 2026, and plans for an autumn vote were dropped.
