War in Ukraine: Sky's Alex Crawford's interview with Volodymyr Zelenskyy in full

Ukraine's President Volodomyr Zelenskyy says millions of people could die if the world does not stop the bombing of his country.

Watch Sky's Alex Crawford exclusive interview with him in full.

[J.D.Hardesty]

The very first thing he says is "I'm sorry" because he was sitting down instead of standing when she approached, the mental fortitude required to still put emphasis on basic pleasantries at a time like this is immense. I have a huge amount of respect and admiration for Zelenskyy.

[lizfabish]

I really hope President Zelensky survives through this crisis.And I want to see he and Ukrainians recover their nation after this war.

[tastewithjase]

I will shed a tear if this man doesn't make it through this. A true leader, more than most of us have. Shameful this is happening in Europe in 2022.

[sweet]

He looks exhausted but determined :') It's the little actions that I really admire from him, from bringing his own chair and greeting journalists warmly even though he's Putin's #1 target and looks visibly tired, to impulsively saying sorry with his hand on his heart for not being able to stay long in this vid, to him trying his best to articulate the sentences in English (caught the slip of trying to aim for a good grammar too 🥺), and we all know what an amazing speaker he is in Ukrainian/Russian.

The little things that reveal the character of the man behind the President.

I love the way that he apologises for not being able to talk longer. What a man, I hope he survives and that Ukraine somehow prevails as a nation.

[ElMariman]

As a ukrainian myself I have never felt that proud about any other person born in my country, living and dead, the way I feel about this guy.

[Nedwin]

I remember some country leaders who fled abroad when there's conflict, coup, or let's say 'war'. But this Mr. Zelensky sir, I put a lot of respect for his bravery and love for his nation. 🙏

[beardedjb]

He seems like a man who isn't built for war, but has risen to the challenge. It's the little things like when his security are ushering him to leave, he makes sure to get a finally "sorry" as he touches his heart. A brave man to be sure.

[themintleaf]

I love this man. Ukrainians will love him even more when he is victorious. The world will respect him forever. Most Presidents flee/escape secretly right away to safety, but he is steadfast supporting his army and nation by staying in the country . Kudos to Zelensky

[pauledwards]

Answered every question with honour and truthfulness. That's why Ukraine is united.

[Sickofdrawingcowboys]

His name will go up with the greats. We're watching a living legend of history.

[selvakanagarajan]

Spectacular interview. Loving Mr. Zelenskyy. The calmness, clarity, thought process, etc. etc. Praying for Ukraine and its people to be safe and wish this war ends without any more human casualties.

[ThatManWithAPixelatedFace]

God bless this man and his heart. Genuine and brave. We might never see another man of this calibre in our lifetime.

Слава Україні! ✊️🇺🇦

[mltygmq]

Gosh I cried when he said it is not his décision but Ukrainian people and their president to decide…We need more human being like him, seriously may the universe protect this leader.

[meemeezong]

This interview breaks my heart. I cried listening and watching president zelensky do this interview. He is trying so hard to save his people and the world is moving so slow when they have so little time. It breaks my heart and makes me angry that my government USA is not doing enough.

[duonzi]

words of gold 'that decision is not mine and not Putin's, that is decision of Ukrainian nation' 💙💛

[adrianag]

May this hero be safe. Praying so hard for him and his wonderful country!

[lisamalwitz]

He looks clear and energetic for someone who has had so little sleep and so much stress. He is an amazing man/leader. The right thing to do is to help him and the people of Ukraine. He cannot win this assault single handedly.

[DROPSHOTA]

This guy is an absolute legend, could have fled and left his people and yet he stay’s to fight what a man

[ch.]

His "I need ammos, not a ride" will be remembered forever. A true hero.
