Volodymyr Zelenskyy
The Public Record
Volodymyr Zelenskyy is the President of Ukraine, having taken office in May 2019. A former comedian and television producer, he gained prominence through his role in the television series 'Servant of the People,' where he played a schoolteacher who unexpectedly becomes president. Zelenskyy ran for office as a political outsider, campaigning on anti-corruption and reform agendas. His leadership has been particularly noted during the ongoing conflict with Russia, where he has sought to rally international support for Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity.
We will continue working to ensure justice for all victims. Criminals must face trial in The Hague and be punished.
The Tribunal, formally launched today, creates a real opportunity to hold the leadership of the Russian regime accountable for the crimes committed against our state and our people.
We appreciate the attention and the readiness to help bring peace closer. Details will follow.
I thank Mr President, I thank the United States. We discussed how to achieve a ceasefire and a real peace.
I had a long and substantive meeting with President Trump. We covered all the truly important issues.
[we] have evidence that they are preparing new military operations on the territory of Europe… We will inform partners about the facts that our intelligence has obtained. We are preparing joint defence solutions together, in particular…
The sooner the sick people in the Kremlin lose the ability to finance the war, the more lives we can save in Ukraine.
Is doing this simply because he can afford to continue the war. He wants the war to go on.
It is wrong when the powerful of this world turn a blind eye to it. The terrorists must feel the pain—not innocent, peaceful people.
Putin does this solely because he can afford to continue the war. He wants the war to go on.
A brilliant result that took 18 months to plan and would undoubtedly be in history books.
I'm ready to meet with Putin and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan in the coming days.
Zelenskyy said that Russia gave Ukraine an 'ultimatum,' not a memorandum for a cease-fire agreement.
Many have spoken with Russia at various levels. But none of these talks have brought a reliable peace, or even stopped the war.
If the powerful do not stop Putin, it means they share responsibility with him.
We are doing everything to protect our independence, our state and our people.
First — a full and unconditional ceasefire. Second — the release of prisoners. Third — the return of abducted children.
