Reuters writes of Sunday’s vote choice: “With Zelenskiy’s insurgent run for the presidency, Ukraine is surfing a wave of popular anger similar to the ones that brought the anti-establishment 5-Star Movement to power in Italy and U.S. President Donald Trump to office… Poroshenko, a multi-millionaire businessman, has not shaken off allegations he puts business before matters of state. Corruption allegations have tainted his entourage, reforms have been fitful and price rises have eaten into living standards…. ‘His greatest weakness is that he values money over everything else,’ said Mustafa Nayyem, a former member of Poroshenko’s faction in parliament.”
