Zelensky: from comedian to Churchillian

The Ukraine president Vlodomyr Zelensky has refused to leave the country, despite reportedly being ‘target number one’ for Russian troops invading the country. He went from comedian to leading his country in a David v Goliath battle against Russia.

Zoya Sheftalovich is a contributing editor for POLITICO based in Australia with a Ukrainian background. Zoya says the scale of this invasion is a reaction to Zelensky and Zelensky’s effect on Ukrainian resistance.

So who is Vlodomyr Zelensky – and how did he go from a TV comedian, to a Churchillian wartime president?
