Ukraine: What鈥檚 life like for President Zelensky?
Before 2019 he was a comedian, but now he's the president of a country at war.
It鈥檚 been nearly two years since Russia invaded Ukraine. Millions of people have fled the country and thousands have been killed. The fighting is still going on, with Ukraine鈥檚 leader Volodymyr Zelensky continuing to appeal for international support.
大象传媒 Monitoring鈥檚 Russia editor, Vitaly Shevchenko, takes us through what Zelensky鈥檚 life has been like since the war began. Before becoming president in 2019, he was a comedian and even voiced Paddington Bear in the Ukrainian version of the film - how is he dealing with being in charge?
