Person
President of Ukraine. The assessment covers democratic election, reform and anti-corruption efforts, defence against Russian invasion, civilian protection, diplomacy, martial-law restrictions and violations attributed to Ukrainian authorities or forces.
This is a contemporary assessment current to 26 June 2026. It must be revised as later conduct and evidence become available.
Current published result
Defence of a population against external aggression, democratic legitimacy and institutional resilience produce a positive result. The score is moderated by wartime restrictions, unresolved corruption and violations requiring investigation and accountability.
This assessment presents six separate ethical dimensions rather than one overall moral score. Each result must be read with its evidence, plausible range, confidence, disputes, exclusions, severe-harm findings and sources.
The strongest positive evidence concerns defence of Ukraine's population and sovereignty against invasion, maintenance of state institutions, international diplomacy and progress toward EU and anti-corruption reforms.
Negative evidence concerns wartime restrictions, concentration of media and executive authority and documented violations by some Ukrainian authorities or forces. Attribution to Zelenskyy varies.
