Ukraine is "ready for elections", President Volodymyr Zelensky has said, after US President Donald Trump repeated claims Kyiv was "using war" to avoid holding them.
Zelensky's five-year term as president was due to end in May 2024, but elections have been suspended in Ukraine since martial law was declared after Russia's invasion.
Speaking to reporters following Trump's comments in a wide-raging Politico interview, Zelensky said he would ask for proposals to be drawn up which could change the law.
Elections could be held in the next 60 to 90 days if security for the vote was guaranteed with the help of the US and other allies, he said.
"I'm asking now, and I'm stating this openly, for the US to help me, perhaps together with our European colleagues, to ensure security for the elections," he told reporters.
"The issue of elections in Ukraine, I believe, depends first and foremost on our people, and this is a question for the people of Ukraine, not the people of other countries. With all due respect to our partners," he said.
"I've heard hints that we're clinging to power, or that I personally am clinging to the presidency" and "that's why the war isn't ending", which he called "frankly, a completely unreasonable narrative".
Russia has consistently claimed Zelensky is an illegitimate leader and demanded new elections as a condition of a ceasefire deal – a talking point which has been repeated by Trump.
"They talk about a democracy, but it gets to a point where it's not a democracy anymore," the US president told Politico. He has suggested without evidence that Zelensky is the main obstacle to peace as US-led efforts to broker a peace deal to end the war in Ukraine continue.
Such a vote would only be fair if all Ukrainians could participate, including soldiers fighting on the front line, a Ukrainian opposition MP told the BBC.
"In order for these elections to be fair all of the People of Ukraine would need to be allowed to vote," Lesia Vasylenko told the BBC World Service's Newsday programme.
She said that "elections are never possible in wartime", alluding to the suspension of elections in the UK during World War Two.
Discussions around holding elections have made headlines since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. They have been routinely dismissed by Ukraine's government, opposition and public alike, arguing unity in the war effort must come first.
A poll by the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS) in March found about 78% of people opposed holding elections even after a complete settlement of the war.
"Even a year ago, Zelensky said that he was ready for elections as soon as the conditions allow" in the face of previous pressure, Hanna Shelest, a foreign policy analyst with the think tank Ukrainian Prism, told the BBC.
The question was, however, how to create the conditions Zelensky outlined, Shelest told the Newsroom programme on the BBC World Service, given there were around one million soldiers and four million refugees who would be voting - as well as unsecured areas in the country and ongoing strikes.
"You cannot guarantee the security of the polling stations," she said.
Meerkats are incredibly social animals and live in large groups known as 'mobs' or 'clans'
Humans are a bit like meerkats when it comes to pairing up, according to a study that examined the monogamous lifestyles of different species.
In our romantic life, we more closely resemble these social, close-knit mongooses than we do our primate cousins, a "league table" of monogamy compiled by scientists suggests.
At 66% monogamous, humans score surprisingly highly, far above chimps and gorillas – and on a par with meerkats.
However, we are by no means the most monogamous creature. Top spot goes to the Californian mouse - rodents that form inseparable, lifelong bonds.

Chimpanzees are highly social and form strong bonds but have very different social structures from humans
"There is a premier league of monogamy, in which humans sit comfortably, while the vast majority of other mammals take a far more promiscuous approach to mating," said Dr Mark Dyble at the University of Cambridge.
In the animal world, pairing up has its perks, which may be why it has evolved independently in multiple species, including us. Experts have proposed various benefits to so-called social monogamy, where mates match up for at least a breeding season to care for their young and see off rivals.
Dr Dyble examined several human populations throughout history, calculating the proportions of full siblings – where individuals share the same mother and father – compared with half-siblings, individuals who share either a mother or a father, but not both. Similar data was compiled for more than 30 social monogamous and other mammals.
Humans have a monogamy rating of 66% full siblings, ahead of meerkats (60%) but behind beavers (73%).
Meanwhile, our evolutionary cousins fall at the bottom of the table - with mountain gorillas at 6% rating, while chimpanzees come in at just 4% (alongside the dolphin).
In last place is Scotland's Soay sheep, where females mate with multiple males, with 0.6% full siblings. The Californian mouse came top, at 100%.

Monogamy is prevalent in birds; such as swans, which form strong pairs
However, being ranked alongside meerkats and beavers doesn't mean our societies are the same - human society is poles apart.
"Although the rates of full siblings we see in humans are most similar to species like meerkats or beavers, the social system that we see in humans is very different," Dr Dyble told BBC News.
"Most of these species live in colony-like social groups or perhaps live in solitary pairs that go around together. Humans are very different from that. We live in what we call multi-male, multi-female groups, within which we have these monogamous, or pair-bonded, units."

Soay sheep are the most promiscuous of all the animals studied
Dr Kit Opie at the University of Bristol, who is not connected with the study, said this is another piece in the puzzle over how human monogamy arose.
"I think this paper gives us a very clear understanding that across time and across space humans are monogamous," he said.
"Our society is much closer to chimps and bonobos – it just happens that we've taken a different route when it comes to mating."
The Prince of Wales has paid tribute to pioneering elephant conservationist Iain Douglas-Hamilton, who died aged 83 at his home in Nairobi on Monday.
Douglas-Hamilton spent his life studying and campaigning to protect African elephants, becoming a world-leading expert on their behaviour in the wild.
His groundbreaking research exposed the devastating effects of poaching - often at great risk to his own safety - and was instrumental in the banning of the international ivory trade.
Prince William praised the zoologist as "a man who dedicated his life to conservation and whose life's work leaves lasting impact on our appreciation for, and understanding of, elephants".
"The memories of spending time in Africa with him will remain with me forever," added Prince William, who is a royal patron for the African wildlife conservation charity, Tusk, of which Douglas-Hamilton was an ambassador.
"The world has lost a true conservation legend today, but his extraordinary legacy will continue," the charity's founder Charles Mayhew said in a statement.
Oria Douglas-Hamilton
Born in 1942 to an aristocratic British family in Dorset, England, Douglas-Hamilton studied biology and zoology in Scotland and Oxford before moving to Tanzania to research elephant social behaviour.
It was there at Lake Manyara National Park that he began documenting every elephant he encountered, eventually becoming so familiar with the herds he could recognise them by the unique shapes of their ears and wrinkles on their skin.
"The thing about elephants is that they have a lot in common with human beings," he said in a 2024 documentary about his work, A Life Among Elephants.
Friend and fellow conservationist Jane Goodall, who died in October, was featured in the documentary, and said he had shown the world that elephants are capable of feeling just like humans.
"I think his legacy will be one of a man who did so much to help people understand how majestic, how wonderful elephants are, and to learn more about their way of life," Goodall said.
Oria Douglas-Hamilton
But that work did not always come easy: he was charged at by elephants, almost killed by a swarm of bees and shot at by poachers. In 2010, a flood destroyed his research facility in Kenya and years of work was lost.
Despite the hardships, Douglas-Hamilton remained steadfast in his mission to raise awareness of the plight of African elephants, becoming one of the leading voices to alert the world of the ivory poaching crisis, which he described as "an elephant holocaust".
He later campaigned for an international ban on the commercial trade in ivory, and in 1989 the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species was signed, an international agreement between governments.
After the agreement failed to wipe out the trade completely, Douglas-Hamilton turned his attention to China and the US, the two main markets for ivory. Chinese President Xi Jinping and then-US President Barack Obama agreed to a near-total ban on its import and export in 2015.
Douglas-Hamilton established Save the Elephants in 1993, a charity dedicated to safeguarding the animals and deepening human understanding of their behaviour.
The organisation's CEO Frank Pope, who is also his son-in-law, said: "Iain changed the future not just for elephants, but for huge numbers of people across the globe. His courage, determination and rigour inspired everyone he met."
In his own words, Douglas-Hamilton expressed optimism for the future of his life's work.
"I think my greatest hope for the future is that there will be an ethic developed of human-elephant coexistence," he once said.
Iain Douglas-Hamilton is survived by his wife Oria, children Saba and Dudu, and six grandchildren.
The man behind the headlines - Salah, by Klopp, Diaz and more
Published
Image source, BBC Sport
During the eight-and-a-half years he has spent at Liverpool, Mohamed Salah has been beloved by supporters, who rank the 'Egyptian King' among the club's greatest ever players.
But since his unexpected declaration he feels scapegoated by Liverpool for the club's poor run, having been picked as a substitute for three consecutive matches by manager Arne Slot, Salah's character has been called into question by fans, former players and beyond.
So who is Salah the man - away from the latest headlines?
Over the past few months, BBC Sport has spoken to some of those who know him best to find out more about the personality and resilience of the man behind the goals, the glory, and the gossip.
'You only have problems with Mo if he is not playing'
Salah's relentless intensity and refusal to accept lower standards from himself or those around him have underpinned Liverpool's success, and perhaps also explain why he has found criticism of his diminished role tough to handle.
"We are all massively influenced by our past - how we were raised, where we grew up," says Jurgen Klopp, who won every major trophy in English and European football while managing Salah at Anfield. "Mo knew early on [in his life] that he had to do more than others.
"He always developed. He never stops. That is his mindset.
"After each summer break he came back and had a new skill. It was like he had spent the whole time just practising one particular type of pass.
"We pushed each other, just to make sure that we would never stop. And we never did stop. That moment lifting the Premier League bonded us for life. He will be remembered as one of the greatest of all time.
"I wouldn't say he is easy to manage, but he is also not difficult to manage. You [only] have problems with Mo Salah if he is not playing or you take him off."
Salah has been criticised by some for not giving more frequent media interviews before his intervention in the mixed zone at Leeds' Elland Road, particularly after defeats and poor performances.
He has been accused of demonstrating a lack of leadership. But he has often delivered calls to arms to fans on social media, external in difficult moments, and those who have played alongside him describe Salah as a man who refuses to give up and is capable of inspiring others.
"He will always be trying to prove someone wrong," says former Liverpool team-mate Adam Lallana.
"He is not macho. I would often tell my children about how he behaves, how he doesn't get too high in good moments, doesn't beat himself up too much in low moments. He would always remain completely focused on the job in hand.
"I would look at him and it would make me feel calm because of how in control he would be all the time.
"Knowing Mo, he will always be fighting, being resilient, and trying to find ways to better himself."

"Never give up - did it ever fit to a situation better than this one?" says Klopp about the T-shirt an injured Salah wore during Liverpool's 4-0 Champions League win over Barcelona in 2019. Lallana says the shirt "inspired" the team. James Milner keeps one at home.
'He wants to be the best at everything'
Salah defended his record when speaking at Elland Road, and compared himself to England captain Harry Kane - delivering what he felt was a reminder to those inside and outside of Liverpool who have forgotten what he is capable of.
A level of arrogance is perhaps to be expected in all elite athletes, and some believe it has powered Salah to the heights he and Liverpool have reached.
"He is a really nice guy, considering the success he has had - being a superstar around the globe," says James Milner - Liverpool's vice-captain during most of Salah's time at the club.
"He plays as if he has a chip on his shoulder. He wants to be the best at everything - he even got a chess teacher to improve his game, and gave me a thumping a good few times.
"You need different types of leaders, and Mo is a big leader in that group, in terms of the standards he set every day. When you have young players come and sign, they see him and it's 'this is what is takes to be a top player, this is what it is to be a Liverpool player'."
That desire to always be the best became competition - fraught at times - with team-mate Sadio Mane, Liverpool's other flying forward who played on the opposite wing to Salah for five seasons.
"Were they best friends? No," Klopp says. "Could Mo have passed the ball a few times when he tried to finish it off himself? Yes. But on the pitch they supported each other, they fought for each other."

Throughout his time with Liverpool, Salah has demonstrated his competitiveness on and off the pitch
He was born in a rural village - Nagrig - about 100 miles from Cairo, where most of the roughly 15,000 inhabitants work as farmers and more than half live in poverty.
That such a region could produce one of the world's greatest athletes borders on impossible.
"What already set him apart as a kid was his discipline," says Maher Anwar Shtiyeh - mayor of Nagrig. "He remains deeply tied to his roots, despite fame and global recognition.
"He only finds real happiness in his village spending time with his family and friends. He is a role model for the youth of Egypt, the Arab youth, and the youth of the whole Islamic world. He has lifted the heads of all of us."
As a child, Salah would travel up to five hours by minibus from his village to the capital, where he played youth football for top-flight club Arab Contractors.
That helped instil a resilience that has guided him throughout his professional career, alongside support from loved ones.
"You have to be mentally so strong as a young kid following your dream like that," says former international team-mate Ahmed Elmohamady.
"His wife is from the same village. They grew up together, which is great because she knows everything about him and has supported him all the way.
"Now anyone in the village who asks him for support, he supports them. It shows what a great human being he is."
Since leaving Egypt, Salah has maintained close ties with Nagrig and financed an ambulance station, a charitable foundation and a religious institute in the area.
Salah has proudly made his faith visible throughout his career - he prays both when walking onto the pitch and after scoring goals.
"When I first met Mo, he was coming here quite regularly," says Shafique Rahman - Imam at Liverpool Mosque and Islamic Institute. "He would arrive a little bit late after finishing training. We had people waiting outside who wanted to see him, but nobody would bother him during prayer.
"The nature of the religion is that everybody is the same in the eyes of God. When people come to prayers they stand extremely close, touching each other's shoulders. Mo felt very safe here."

'To get up and want to be the best every day – that's a different mindset'
When Salah first moved to England - signed by Jose Mourinho's Chelsea after impressing for Basel in Switzerland - he struggled to impose his personality in a squad full of established stars, and lacked self-belief.
"When I first met him, he was 21 - very innocent," says former team-mate Mark Schwarzer. "He was coming to London - a big city, different culture - and I think he was a bit timid.
"When he signed, he was coming into a changing room packed full of international stars - players that were used to winning, and a manager that was a legend of the club. For new players, it was sink or swim.
"The more he didn't score, the more frustrated he became. There was a moment in the changing room when Jose actually kicked a table, and was directing a lot of his frustration towards Mo, and he took him off. Mo was visibly upset.
"It's credit to him, his determination, his dedication, everything, to go on and deliver what he has done."
Salah rebuilt his career in Italy's Serie A - first in a loan spell with Fiorentina then at Roma, developing a reputation as an on-field leader and ultimate professional.
"He was just different," explains BBC pundit and former England and Manchester City defender Micah Richards, who played alongside Salah at Fiorentina. "You get those characters that just do everything by the book - he was that guy.
"He would always be in bed early, always be eating healthily. He clearly thought, 'I'm going to show everyone exactly what I can do. All those who have doubted me are going to eat their words.' That's exactly what he did."
For a young African man to set standards for European colleagues to follow was a challenge in itself.
"To succeed in Europe you have to understand the culture of where you are playing, where you are living, without losing any of your principles," says former Egypt striker Mido, who played for Tottenham, Roma and Ajax among others. "This is the balance that he has achieved.
"He has made young boys in Africa dream - 'If someone who comes from the background as I do made it to the top, why couldn't I make it?'"

'Mo has left a profound mark on me'
Even before Salah's comments following the 3-3 draw with Leeds, doubts about his future were arising.
Inside Liverpool, concerns had already been raised about his performances, before transfer rumours were given further encouragement this week, with sources telling the BBC the Reds are open-minded about selling the 33-year-old.
Salah is not the only Liverpool hero whose time at the club - which he and Slot have said could be up in the January transfer window - has (potentially) ended with public denigration.
In different contexts, Javier Mascherano, Fernando Torres and Trent Alexander-Arnold have met similar fates, while shirts bearing the legendary Steven Gerrard's name were set alight in the street when he was on the verge of joining Chelsea in 2005.
If this is the end of Salah and Liverpool's love affair, the human impact he has had on those around him will not be forgotten any time soon.
"He was one of the first people to welcome me, and did so in such an incredible way," says Luis Diaz, who played alongside Salah in Liverpool's forward line for three-and-a-half years before joining Bayern Munich earlier this year.
"He came over to me and said: 'if you ever need my help, I'm here for you.' I remember him telling me on the pitch: 'Let's try this... let's make this move so that it works.' And then it would work in the match.
"To share the moment lifting the Premier League with him, to see how happy he was, how much he was enjoying it, was an incredible feeling.
"He is always wanting to be a better player, to be a better person, and he has left a profound mark on me."
The donor's sperm was used in clinics across Europe (stock image)
A sperm donor who unknowingly harboured a genetic mutation that dramatically raises the risk of cancer has fathered at least 197 children across Europe, a major investigation has revealed.
Some children have already died and only a minority who inherit the mutation will escape cancer in their lifetimes.
The sperm was not sold to UK clinics, but the BBC can confirm a "very small" number of British families, who have been informed, used the donor's sperm while having fertility treatment in Denmark.
Denmark's European Sperm Bank, which sold the sperm, said families affected had their "deepest sympathy" and admitted the sperm was used to make too many babies in some countries.

Up to 20% of the donor's sperm contains the dangerous mutation that increases the risk of cancer (stock image)
The investigation has been conducted by 14 public service broadcasters, including the BBC, as part of the European Broadcasting Union's Investigative Journalism Network.
The sperm came from an anonymous man who was paid to donate as a student, starting in 2005. His sperm was then used by women for around 17 years.
He is healthy and passed the donor screening checks. However, the DNA in some of his cells mutated before he was born.
It damaged the TP53 gene – which has the crucial role of preventing the body's cells turning cancerous.
Most of the donor's body does not contain the dangerous form of TP53, but up to 20% of his sperm do.
However, any children made from affected sperm will have the mutation in every cell of their body.
This is known as Li Fraumeni syndrome and comes with an up to 90% chance of developing cancer, particularly during childhood as well as breast cancer later in life.
"It is a dreadful diagnosis," Prof Clare Turnbull, a cancer geneticist at the Institute of Cancer Research in London, told the BBC. "It's a very challenging diagnosis to land on a family, there is a lifelong burden of living with that risk, it's clearly devastating."
MRI scans of the body and the brain are needed every year, as well as abdominal ultrasounds, to try to spot tumours. Women often choose to have their breasts removed to lower their risk of cancer.
The European Sperm Bank said the "donor himself and his family members are not ill" and such a mutation is "not detected preventatively by genetic screening". They said they "immediately blocked" the donor once the problem with his sperm was discovered.
Children have died
Doctors who were seeing children with cancer linked to sperm donation raised concerns at the European Society of Human Genetics this year.
They reported they had found 23 with the variant out of 67 children known at the time. Ten had already been diagnosed with cancer.
Through Freedom of Information requests and interviews with doctors and patients we can reveal substantially more children were born to the donor.
The figure is at least 197 children, but that may not be the final number as data has not been obtained from all countries.
It is also unknown how many of these children inherited the dangerous variant.
Dr Kasper has been helping some of the families affected
Dr Edwige Kasper, a cancer geneticist at Rouen University Hospital, in France, who presented the initial data, told the investigation: "We have many children that have already developed a cancer.
"We have some children that have developed already two different cancers and some of them have already died at a very early age."
Céline, not her real name, is a single-mother in France whose child was conceived with the donor's sperm 14 years ago and has the mutation.
She got a call from the fertility clinic she used in Belgium urging her to get her daughter screened.
She says she has "absolutely no hard feelings" towards the donor but says it was unacceptable she was given sperm that "wasn't clean, that wasn't safe, that carried a risk".
And she knows cancer will be looming over them for the rest of their lives.
"We don't know when, we don't know which one, and we don't know how many," she says.
"I understand that there's a high chance it's going to happen and when it does, we'll fight and if there are several, we'll fight several times."
The donor's sperm was used by 67 fertility clinics in 14 countries.
The sperm was not sold to UK clinics.
However, as a result of this investigation the authorities in Denmark notified the UK's Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA) on Tuesday that British women had travelled to the country to receive fertility treatment using the donor's sperm.
Those women have been informed.
Peter Thompson, the chief executive of the HFEA, said a "very small number" of women were affected and "they have been told about the donor by the Danish clinic at which they were treated".
We do not know if any British women had treatment in other countries where the donor's sperm was distributed.
Concerned parents are advised to contact the clinic they used and the fertility authority in that country.
The BBC is choosing not to release the donor's identification number because he donated in good faith and the known cases in the UK have been contacted.
There is no law on how many times a donor's sperm can be used worldwide. However, individual countries do set their own limits.
The European Sperm Bank accepted these limits had "unfortunately" been breached in some countries and it was "in dialogue with the authorities in Denmark and Belgium".
In Belgium, a single sperm donor is only supposed to be used by six families. Instead 38 different women produced 53 children to the donor.
The UK limit is 10 families per donor.
'You can't screen for everything'
Prof Allan Pacey, who used to run the Sheffield Sperm Bank and is now the deputy vice president of the Faculty of Biology Medicine and Health at the University of Manchester, said countries had become dependent on big international sperm banks and half the UK's sperm was now imported.
He told the BBC: "We have to import from big international sperm banks who are also selling it to other countries, because that's how they make their money, and that is where the problem begins, because there's no international law about how often you can use the sperm."
He said the case was "awful" for everybody involved, but it would be impossible to make sperm completely safe.
"You can't screen for everything, we only accept 1% or 2% of all men that apply to be a sperm donor in the current screening arrangement so if we make it even tighter, we wouldn't have any sperm donors – that's where the balance lies."
This case, alongside that of a man who was ordered to stop after fathering 550 children through sperm donation, has again raised questions over whether there should be tougher limits.
The European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology has recently suggested a limit of 50 families per donor.
However, it said this would not reduce the risk of inheriting rare genetic diseases.
Rather, it would be better for the wellbeing of children who discover they are one of hundreds of half-siblings.
"More needs to be done to reduce the number of families that are born globally from the same donors," said Sarah Norcross, the director of the Progress Educational Trust, an independent charity for people affected by infertility and genetic conditions.
"We don't fully understand what the social and psychological implications will be of having these hundreds of half siblings. It can potentially be traumatic," she told BBC News.
The European Sperm Bank said: "It is important, especially in light of this case, to remember that thousands of women and couples do not have the opportunity to have a child without the help of donor sperm.
"It is generally safer to have a child with the help of donor sperm if the sperm donors are screened according to medical guidelines."
What if you are considering using a sperm donor?
Sarah Norcross said these cases were "vanishingly rare" when you consider the number of children born to a sperm donor.
All of the experts we spoke to said using a licensed clinic meant the sperm would be screened for more diseases than most fathers-to-be are.
Prof Pacey said he would ask "is this a UK donor or is this a donor from somewhere else?"
"If it's a donor from somewhere else I think it's legitimate to ask questions about has that donor been used before? Or how many times will this donor be used?"
If you or someone you know has been affected by the issues raised, details of help and support are available at BBC Action Line.
The first thing I discovered when I started hunting provenance extended attributes (xattr) was a bug in my free utility xattred. This can result in the app crashing when using its Crawler to explore xattrs on items in a folder. I have fixed that in this new version 1.7, available below.
My hunt was by and large successful, with a great many com.apple.provenance xattrs caught. There are some interesting problems, though.
Looking through the contents of the main Applications folder, there are three groups of apps:
Those with Apple certificates, including bundled apps and those delivered through the App Store (which are all signed by Apple, not their developer), which have no provenance xattr as they don’t register with provenance tracking.
Apps with third-party certificates that have been installed simply, which have a single provenance xattr on the app bundle containing that app’s provenance ID.
Apps with third-party certificates that have been installed or updated using a third-party app such as their Sparkle update mechanism, whose entire contents have provenance xattrs attached by the installer/updater, so not bearing the app’s provenance ID.
Examining files in the ~/Documents folder, there are plenty with provenance xattrs, and a great many with quarantine xattrs bearing information about their history including origin. Although some of the provenance IDs on them don’t match with those of apps, there’s sufficient to provide useful information about many without accessing the ExecPolicy database’s Provenance Tracking table. Therefore I will proceed to code up Providable over the next couple of weeks.
This new version of xattred should fix that crashing bug in its Crawler feature, that enables you to scan folders for information about their xattrs.
I have also looked at an issue that I’ve experienced when editing some xattrs such as the new com.apple.icon.folder type used in Tahoe to customise the appearance of folders. When editing them, some of the double-quotation marks used in text content can become changed to ‘smart’ quotes, which isn’t in the least bit smart, as it prevents that xattr from functioning correctly. Although that feature is disabled for that text view, macOS seems to be ignoring its setting and substituting smart quotes regardless. Provided that you’re aware of this danger and take care to ensure that all quotation marks are non-smart, you can edit xattrs successfully. Hopefully this will be improved in the future.
xattred version 1.7 for macOS 11.5 or later is available from here: xattred17
from Downloads above, from its Product Page, and via its auto-update mechanism.
