That is what I thought. But even Trump called him "President" Zelensky. My husband and a good friend who are decently in the know of alternative news did not know that elections were cancelled and he is not a president now. I think it is important that Jeff helps us all keep the language clear since just seeing that today made me second guess my understanding of the situation. Thabks to all the c&c commenter for affirming my understanding! so confusing to have media et al faking titles.

Zelensky's term expired at the end of May this year.

He did cancel elections several months before.

MSM won't tell you.

That's why President Putin will not negotiate with him. He's not the official leader of his country. Putin told him to, basically, pound sand.

Think Trump is trying to be diplomatic; when elected he may clarify

Maybe he used the term "president" as a courtesy.

Like we do for former presidents here maybe? We still say President Carter for example.
