They paused elections, and Zelensky has some extraordinary wartime authority. He could try to consolidate power after the war, but he certainly won’t.
They aren’t really a dictatorship, of course, I’m just trying to illustrate that dictators can and have chosen to give up power… And it’s unfortunate that more don’t.
Their constitution states that elections won’t be held during wartime. He’s not disallowing elections, their foundation of government is disallowing them. Attempts to band ho,as some kind of dictator are just propoganda. He’s the legally elected President and following their laws.

How is Ukraine a dictatorship?
