Abstract
Ukraine’s new President Volodymyr Zelensky has promised to continue reforms, fight corruption, continue Ukraine’s European integration and bring peace to the Donbas. He could be successful in the first three goals, but the latter will elude him.

In the medium term, the remaining stalemate in Ukrainian-Russian relations will likely have four consequences.
