Ukraine First Lady Olena Zelenska shares how this ongoing crisis impacted her family

In a video released on Tuesday (May 31), Ukrainian first lady Olena Zelenska said that she is lucky to have her children nearby, but she rarely sees her husband, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

Zelenska said she has always tried to speak honestly with her daughter Oleksandra, 17, and son Kyrylo, 9, and do the same during the war.
But even though her children understand and know what’s happening, she said they would still ask when will it all end.

She has nothing to worry. She has enough 💰. But the ucranian ppl will suffer for years as result of her husband irresponsibility.

[starlightsign]

An old Japanese saying: ‘ If a Husband is a thief..so is his wife.’

[codelessunlimited]

Does she have an amnesia, it just eight years ago his own government murdered its own citizens in Donbas Region. Talk about mockery.

[jays]

Who tf cares what about your own people 😭 is this a reality tv show ? Or a war 🫠

[markomilenkovic]

It impacted her wallet its much biger now.

WE ARE CRYING . The show of the first lady begins !
Jajaja ! The ideal partner for Elensky.
The Z is only for Russia !
The pain will pass her with the dollars . Or rubles ?

I wonder if the soldiers and victims of war are laughing it off and wants their children to go to school on sept the 1st? Like, they dont have anything else to worry about than school. Disgusting.

How selfish, self-centered and non caring of the wife of the leader of Ukraine. The ongoing crisis is her husband's doing. There are millions, if not billions of families around the world affected by this crisis her husband helped to create and continues to foster. Think about the millions of Ukrainian families who are refugees throughout the world. Think about the millions of families in the Donbass that were-are affected by bombings of their government, its military and the Azov Battalion over the past eight. They continue to suffer due to her husband's presidency. No violins played for her.

Dear First lady,
You are young and beautiful. You should choose someone more human and regular person then a comedian or addicted person before it's too late!

[MatejzKosic]

She is a true inspiration for all trans women all around the globe!

[mikeriggall]

She is not First Lady because as a First Lady she has to stay in Ukrain in this difficult time for thier people, like First Lady of Syria 🇸🇾
President Asad told his wife or First Lady to leave Syria and First Lady told him I will stay in Syria with Syrian people in this difficult time . Zelensky & his wife doesn’t care about Ukrainian people, zelensky wife looks like very happy and enjoying her life💰

I think Putin told you...If you want to denounce the things that made you what you are today then you will end up with what you started with, something along those lines. Ukraine was basically a group of 3 small areas within Russian territories predominantly grain growing regions 1 third the size it is now...They never built Kiev or the other 2 thirds of Ukraine that was gifted to them by Moscow back in the 90's. Russian people or those that spoke Russian were not ostracized on their ancestral land before the 2014 American funded coup. Those museums she speaks of are filled with Slavic culture from regions all over not just Ukraine. This women is just as delusional as her husband and I'm quite sure 2 thirds of Ukraine would agree.

[nopenope]

Looks like someone who figured out "we fucked up".

[swadbodhy]

So fresh...Nice hair cut...not a single thing about her..show her country and people are worrying for her...!!!

[Arthur.H.Studio]

Wow - me, me, .. my family, me, me.. a good leader's wife might want to rather talk about the suffering of her people, and the corruption that lead to this.

[jamesh]

I would like to know how does she feel about the families of the 14000 people murdered in the Donbass region since 2014 ?

[aliv]

We are assisting to a LIVE TELENOVELA. At the tv is not a war, is an acting of poor actors. I am gonna vomit on them for sure!!🤮🤮🤮

[avs_prasad]

All of them listening so seriously, nodding their heads gravely. Truly, the prez and first lady of Ukraine never got so much attention.... Standing ovations for the gent and a sympathetic ear for the 1st lady. Slava Ukraine 🤪

[anomanderrake]

My husband only got a few billion from the 50 billion from Murica! It was terrible.

[patriarca]

Yeah we now the government not gonna change for a time, but let her evolve on his own way, just keep close and don’t let her block in old interviews… in any case life is evolution in time.
