In Ukrainian politics, a sluggish season has given way to another, but one that promises reinvigoration, though not necessarily of the healthy sort.
In Ukraine there has been no noticeable change in the lackadaisical approach to politics and reform, and in the general situation as such. It has been largely a case of business as usual as per the lethargic Ukrainian variant that we have become used to. The only sphere where there has been more dynamism is in the external one, with two important and productive European visits having just been undertaken by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
