Zelensky about second presidential term: I will think about it
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky has said that he will think about a possibility of running for second presidential term.
"I will think about it," he said at a press conference in Kyiv on Wednesday, when asked whether he was planning to run for president again.
Zelensky said that if an incumbent president has a rating of 10% or 15% at the beginning of the election campaign, then he "has no right to run for president."
"Because this means only one thing – society does not support him. I came for one term, as I said. The work is difficult, no one will thank you. But if I have big support from the people of Ukraine, I will think about it," he said.
Zelensky also said that his task list has increased.
"That is why I am saying that one term is really not enough for the entire task list to be fulfilled," he said.
