Well he looks much more badass than in the show.
@Juliana Silva before he became a president he was an actor and played school teacher who suddenly became a president of Ukraine
Juliana Silva yup. Great show, he played same role of the “reformator” challenging the status quo of previous government. ... best political campaign in my humble opinion.
@Juliana Silva How crazier? Between vote in oligarchs I would prefer vote in a comedian, policy is just for clowns anyway
He is
I hope the drag him thru Ukraine like they did Qadhdhāfī
Which season of his show is this???
I think it's a controversial spin-off.
I am laughing) Nice film, if you are from ukr)
The Final Chapter
Season 4
Final fantasy.
that`s a lot of homework..
@Артём Щербина that`s nothing compared to what he needs to fix/replace
What a president!Love his bold words.
Maybe he shouldnt have sacked his defence secretary and head of security services and dissolved the parliament...
bold lies ..
He called for peace , two years later, we know that he's a liar.
he spoke of peace , but he acted aggressively towards eastern Ukraine.
@@avibhagan putin acted more aggressively towards whole ukraine
😅🤣
@@avibhagan Stop lying. Russia started the war.
I'm curious to know how exactly he plans on going about getting back the lost territories, its a lot easier to say something then to actually do it.
Anonymous , WW 3 will be here soon *WAR .IS THE WAY*
Same question. Putin seems very determined to have his way in this. He claims that 'the people choose' - so the only valid way of bringing this mission to pass is to get the people's vote on this.
@@YuliyValenko I think Crimea did have a referendum on this and they voted to join Russia, so.... yeah, this is gonna lead to war, it seems.
@Slaughter- chan Russia considers it as valid. That's the whole problem
Yuliy Valenko Fedxit?
love Ukrainian wish have to peace soon and wish people safety
Emotional, touching.
With Ukraine - remembering Anna Akhmatova
In times of Anna Achmatova Ukraine wasn't be country it became something independent in Soviet Union in Hruchev times , Anna Achmatova times have Russian Empire, Tcar , ww1 hungry people without homes and two revolutions, first of that was by mencheviks how make many terroristical acts vs government , esers and other parties after Nicolas 2 wrote that he's not tcar anymore last of that was by Lenin and bolsheviks how were in emigration in Germany mainly (all that was ww1 times when Austria be Empire, when USA was poor and Europe was most powerful in the world
I thought she was victimised in the Stalin era - Her Son Lev got arrested, Husband too, and she was allegedly anti-regime and religious. Remembered her as a dissident & victim of soviet power centered in the ,then Leningrad. ( She rests in peace there,right, St. Petersburg ?)
Thought of her because she was born in Ukraine , thought of her as a brave daughter of Ukraine. Those times were different but human suffering is the same , under crushing political power , right?
I am from India( Asia), just declaring solidarity , with the suffering Ukrainians in the disputed area..
Thank you for the history !
@@vijayalakshmik1231 I think about all Indians killed by English and country divided into two states. Same like Russia following revolution and civil war was divided into 15 useless republics.
Now both countries pay the price.
@@alexanderkouzmitch556 you said it right, my sentiments exactly.
Thought of your painful past , yezhovshchyna and all.
We, the people pay the price - and it never ends. Sometimes i get worried about you people ; us too ; and finally sigh to myself :
-peace, the ultimate utopian concept.
@Mr Touchene i know it is awkward - but here it is a routine dot for many Indian ladies - we stick a dot right there , mythically it is supposed to cover the spot of third eye ( that too mythical / from traditional yoga theories) or something !
I wish him success. I pray the war ends and all Ukraine is returned. Long live Ukraine ❤

A logical thing to do. From his point of view.
@@Comisionado To remove the former President's loyalists.
As a Russian, I can say that I don’t need this Crimea, because of this, war. The people in Russia are just impoverished, so they also took our pension to the improvement of the Crimea.I am writing with the help of Google, I'm sorry there is no money for studying English.
Haha you think Russia is bad, look at Turkey. I am from Turkey but live in Austria, Turkey is in the brink of total fallout, they have opportunistic President who has no clue of what he is doing, everything he touches transforms in chaos. Turkey has the worst reputation in the world, I never saw Turkey so down then as today.
Erdogan Son in Law Berat Albayrak is current Minister of Finance and Treasury.
And he has no clue of Economy.
Inflation is so high that people cant afford tomatoes and potatoes, we are talking about vegetables, meat becomes a luxus object.
The minimum wage is 2020 Turkish lira, 335 Dollar or 300 Euro for full time job, but the poverty-line is 2700 Turkish lira, 400 euros.
@@ibobeko4309 P. S. I have a salary of 210 euros. And all because of the sanctions has risen in price twice.
@@Danilljune Russia at least had sanctions, Turkey does not even have sanctions and economy is going down and down. Turkey has the third highest inflation in the world.

So far it looks like he could repeat his fate
Honestly I am baffled by how many foreigners don’t like Zelensky, considering how much supporters he has in Ukraine and Russia (yes, Russia)
I like much more Zelesky than Poroshenko a bully and ukrainian extremist
Because Ukraine and Russia are like Northern Ireland and independent south Ireland
you are mistaken... many love him.
bless Ukraine.
dia abdul-hadi i am judging by internet comments
I am russian and I support Zelenski.
Many young russian people like Zelenski. But on our russian TV Putin's propagandists hate Zelenski.
And people say not much chances in 3 years.
This is crazy. It's History.
Just before the power intoxicates
Volodymyr Zelenskiy, took the oath of office on Monday and immediately announced he was dissolving parliament and calling a snap election, aiming to win seats in a legislature still dominated by politicians loyal to his predecessor
Is he allowed to dissolve the parliament just like that? Most places get voted into power for terms of some years.
Technique Zeke the president is separate from the government. The government in effect is answerable to the president. If he doesn’t like what’s going on he can dissolve parliament and force a new election regardless of how long the governments been in power.
Snap elections around the world do sometimes happen, though I don't know if any have happened so soon after the previous election.
UK has had only snap elections for the last like 3 or 4 times, maybe more
@@Damo2690 Before the Snap Elections Act 2010 (not sure about the year) every election was a snap election since there was no set year for, the Prime Minister called the election whenever they wanted.
@@joshcathro8264
Sounds pretty tyrannical
Give me some time on this please.
Grazie presidente...combatti contro tutti quelli che nella tua onestà non ti vogliono... SLAVA UCRAINA
As a Russian, I hope he ends the tensions and we can work more diplomatically in the future. Hopefully Putin understands this.
That's great! I am glad you also know that Putler must do the following:
- give back Crimea to Ukraine
- withdraw its troops from the country
- pay reparations
- be brought before a military tribunal that will award him the death penalty because of killing 15000 ukrainians.
as russian, you can expect poverty in your country, after russian will begin to pay out all reparations to Ukraine
@@PutlerXLO I thought that Crimea is Russian territory and that most of the population is Russian speaking?
@Nameless You are right.
@@LEO-xo9cz nobody cares, except insane russian propagandists of the local madhouses. By the way, hello there! 1.5 billion speak English and what is your point? 25% of the whole World including the USA belongs to Great Britain? Unlikely... So, take off your hat with ear flaps, non russian dude, and just take for granted- russians are fascists, that always sucks.
I still can’t believe our president is a actor and comedian
What do you think now?
@@qwertz666 better then putin
@@Idk-zw7hs A lot better I can say

I wonder what he'll do with minority rights. Ukraine is quite trapped in the situation.
Nothing, minority have enough right. I live in Transcarpathia and there are many hungarians and they do not even know Ukrainian. So they have too many rights, do not even know the state language. Ooou, you are hungarian))))

Shall Ukrainians develop their own nuclear powers?
funny thing, cause we gave up our nuclear strengths for a promise (Budapest memorandum) that USA, UK and Russia (haha) shall defend our territorial integrity. And they didn't keep the promise, as you know So I'm 100% sure that we won't get our nuclear weapons back, cause it would turn us into idk, Iran in the eyes of international community and US, Russia and EU will make sure that we don't even think about restoring our nuclear strengths.
@@DetectiveMagnumKane very true.sorry
No, they dont. The rest of the world will step in as soon as the countries declare formal war.

why does russia want crimea so badly?
Putin wants it, not Russia. None of the ordinary Russians does feel advantages after Crimea occupation. Yes, you got Crimea, but at what cost? Russian government sold Siberia to China, but they have small Crimea. It's not worth it.
Maybe because Russians are majority there?
Same as Nagorno Karabakh wants to be part of Armenia, Republika Srpska part of Serbia, Kosovo part of Albania etc.
Eyritra Custard warm water ports
@@mdza that has nothing to do with it. Irridentism has no foundation in international law and Putin has no interests in annexing majority Russian parts of Estonia or Latvia. He cares about Crimea because of its strategic value
Black Sea natural gas fields offshore, the loss of which will damage Ukrainian economy and make it susceptible to accepting loans and deals from Russia. This would obviously favour Russia economically as well. There is also leverage over the Ukrainian southern border in event of direct invasion/involvement in Donbas Warand Crimea is a bufferzone on which to build a potential front line with NATO states such as Romania.

I used to be a Russian loving American and anti-Ukraine. Now I feel more supportive of Ukraine thanks to Zelenskiy. I understand to maintain the balance of power, both Russia and China need to be checked. America will be be the balancing power along with our smaller allies near China and Russia.
