    On Oct. 26 [2019], President Volodymyr Zelensky locked horns with war veterans in the front-line town of Zolote in Luhansk Oblast.

    The president was pushing a mutual disengagement of troops and armaments at the front line flashpoint. The veterans opposed this plan.

    Soon, however, a video of their disagreement shot through Ukrainian social media, fueling passions across the country.
