I guess this is what happens when you ban all non-state controlled media, cancel all elections indefinitely, and demand total obedience to 1 man

Internal power struggle. Guy is vying for potentially taking over control.

Neither Ukraine nor Russia has institutions developed enough to govern in a true democratic fashion like those countries of the Western Europe.

A period of a relatively authoritarian governments or single-party governments has to happen before they develop into pluralistic democracies. See eg the examples of Singapore/South Korea.

They should hold elections and let Ukrainians decide for themselves

"The war has also made it impossible to hold a presidential election in Ukraine, originally slated for March under the constitution, he said.

Although Zelenskyy said he was ready to hold an election, most Ukrainians are not, believing such a vote to be “dangerous and meaningless” as war rages around them"

Who is the appointed speaker for most Ukrainians in this case?

I agree that it's pretty meaningless though. Zelensky is the anointed fall guy. Whenever this war ends all the sins of the war can be pinned on him and whoever runs next can use Zelensky as a piñata. Zelensky won't care much though as he'll probably live out his life in south Florida with a XX million nest egg.

If this is not a rhetorical question then I do not have a prepared answer.
