In the opening hours of the war he didn't run. He stayed at his post and so did millions of Ukrainians.
He spoke to them not from a bunker, but from his desk, in his office. He stayed at work and so did millions of Ukrainians.
He wore plain green clothes instead of a uniform or a suit. He was now a partisan and so now too were millions of Ukrainians.
Zelensky saved his nation along with millions of Ukranians.
@ScottSoCal This guy has a lot of great qualities but I think they almost needed an actor. Someone who is acutely aware of image and how he's perceived not only at home but abroad.. He seems to know exactly how to manipulate media as well. His job at the beginning was to inspire people to fight, now its to inspire the west to support them.
