Professor Heinemann-Grüder from CASSIS believes that democratic elections in Ukraine are unrealistic under the current war conditions. He rates the chances of a stable ceasefire as very low and warns against Russian attempts to exert influence. Even with a temporary peace, he believes the situation would be too uncertain for free and fair elections.
