Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has filmed himself from the street just outside his office, but for the first time since the invasion began, he posted a video message from inside.

“We’re not scared, because you’re not scared,” he told Ukrainians who have taken up arms and told Russia it is not welcome.
“So, I stay here at Bankova Street,” Zelenskyy said. “I’m not hiding from anyone and not afraid of anyone as long as it takes to win in this war, our truly patriotic war.”
New Zelensky video tonight, showing he’s still in office in Kyiv.
“I’m not hiding. I’m not afraid of anyone.”

The latest address was filmed as a selfie in which he showed a view of Kyiv on Monday night.
“This is Kyiv at night outside the window. This is our office. Monday night. You know, we’re used to saying Monday is a hard day,” he said. “But the country is at war now, so every day is Monday.”
‘I’m here, it’s mine, and I won’t give it away. My city. My community. My Ukraine,’ Zelensky added in his defiant message.
Zelensky was responding to rumors that he is hiding in an undisclosed place in Kyiv and has even received offers from NATO countries to go abroad and set up his government in a neighboring country until the war has ended.
Why can’t we ever elect guys like him in the US???
Amazing!
Hope he filmed it a few days ago and is somewhere safe now
