Addresses to his people in his own office and in broad daylight on the streets of Kiev during war time. Anyone ELSE see significant difference between Zelensky and Trump who hid in a bunker during protests?

[therainbow]

The current and former Presidents of Ukraine are both patriotic and brave standing and fighting for their freedom and country in real time. More power to you both! I salute you.

Fun fact: Putin's grandfather, Spiridon Ivanovich Putin, was a private cook for former Soviet Premier Vladimir Lenin at his country house. Following Lenin's death, Spiridon Putin continued working for the Soviet leadership - and even prepared several meals for Joseph Stalin.

God is on your side be safe where ever you are

[steviecrow]

Great Press Secretary under extreme pressure. This is taking a career risk unlike anything most of us will ever know.

[marykelly]

God bless these hero's of war 🙏 slava urkraine

[junejunejuniejune]

protect this man at all costs! I really believe with his leadership, Ukraine can win the war. He may not have been the best president before, but stepped up when it mattered, and has proven to be the BEST war-time president. His courage and strong will is inspiring to the world.

[adeleb]

A LOT of people praying for President Zellenskyy :))

[patcomerford]

I love how Ms. Mendel refers to the tyrannical Putin as "this guy".
Long live Ukraine. 💙💛💓

[patkarpf]

I could never be a negotiater. Looking at the injustice of the actions of Putin and his minions my position would be to turn around the get out of Ukraine.
