Yeah apologies, pulled a Keith and deleted my comment. But on second thought any discussion of Neofolk would probably need to involve notions of identity and/or politics as tied to Europe, what it might mean to be European, et cetera and so forth.
Zelensky has certainly come in for criticism from the start, for not responding aggressively enough to earlier threats, the seemingly politically motivated efforts to sideline Zaluzhnyi, the frequently questioned promotion of Syrskyi. But then to the question of what kind of leader the country would need in wartime. For better or worse, media savvy has long been the thing.
