The war goes so bad that president of the country somehow lost his every suit to it?

No you're missing the point. It's a deliberate choice to not wear "normal" attire. He looks like he could have come from the front or is prepared for physical activity. Symbolizing his country isn't safe right now. Sure it might be a bit of an act if you're not in a warzone right now, but at least to me that puts the picture of him / his country being at war in my mind. The fact we are talking about it proves the signal is effective.

But he don't, he's travelling from one luxury hotel to another in entire world to beg for money that are going to his pal's golden toilets and whatnot.

It's an absolute act, if anything it clowns tragedy of people dragged from streets to the front. Also why not uniform then? He's the commander of all AFU.

Kinda but again it's an act, it would be also talked about it if he wore a clown costume or gimpsuit.
