KIEV – Opposition lawmaker Aleksandr Dubinski has filed a suit challenging the legitimacy of President Vladimir Zelensky whose tenure had expired but has continued to hold office as president.

Zelensky indefinitely postponed the presidential election due to be held in Ukraine on March 31, citing martial law he imposed due to the war with Russia.

Dubinski originally filed the lawsuit late June, arguing that Zelensky’s actions violated the Ukrainian constitution, and urged parliament to call a presidential election.

Dubinski has been in custody since last November, facing a litany of charges, including high treason.
