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.
I'm thankful to President Trump and to congress's bipartisan support...We are strategic partners, and even in such tough dialogue...I think that we have to be on the same side...to stop Putin.
During the war, everybody has problems, even you. But you have a nice ocean and don't feel [it] now, but you will feel it in the future.
I will be very direct and ask Trump if the United States will stop support [for Ukraine] or not.
I will not accept [even] 10 cents of debt repayment in this deal. Otherwise, it will be a precedent.
Trump was living in a 'disinformation space' as Ukraine cannot hold elections during periods of martial law.
It is Vladimir Putin who is responsible for the fact that it is currently impossible to organize free, transparent and democratic elections in Ukraine.
If someone doesn't like [the way things are], they can choose another citizenship.
We look forward to continuing our joint work with Germany to protect lives, bring real peace closer to Ukraine, and strengthen Europe.
I’m focusing on Ukraine’s security today, not in 20 years. And I don’t intend to stay in power for decades.
If it is peace for Ukraine, and if you really want me to leave my post, I’m ready.
The Russian Federation does not want to end the war and continues to escalate global tensions.
I would be willing to resign in exchange for peace in Ukraine or NATO membership.
It is very important to have the support of the president, and support of senate, congress, your two parties, but first of all the support for your people.
I hope it will not have influence on other steps of the United States, and they will not cancel or stop or freeze any support, especially military support to Ukraine.
