In an unusually apolitical video message, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy appealed to the humanity and feelings of his fellow citizens. “No matter what happens and what’s on your mind, support each other, absolutely,” Selenskyj asked in his daily video address last night.
“Please take the time to say kind words to those close to you.” Zelenskyy called on Ukrainians to help each other in times of need. “If you know that someone is expecting a son or daughter from the war, please pay attention: say hello, listen, help,” said the Ukrainian leader. “Hug your family more often.”
Kind words to colleagues or friends are also appropriate. “Thank your parents more often, be happy with children more often.” It is also important not to lose contact with friends and relatives.
At the end of his speech, Zelenskyj got a bit political: “Protect Ukraine, respect each other and do everything to help our soldiers.”
