Ukraine's new president set to be sworn in next week

Ukraine's parliament has voted to swear the new president into office next week, opening the possibility of a snap parliamentary election.

 

The Supreme Rada on Thursday voted overwhelmingly to set the date for Volodymyr Zelenskiy's inauguration for May 20. Zelenskiy, a popular comedian with no political experience, has said that he will seek an election as the current parliament in his opinion has lost people's trust.
