Ukrainian President Volodymyr
Zelenskyy is not yet sure whether he will run for president again after the
war, he told
German broadcaster ZDF on April 14.
In the interview, the Ukrainian leader said the decision will depend on when and how the Russo–Ukrainian war ends, whether Ukrainians want him to, and his family’s wishes.
“Not a given that yes, and not a given that no,” Zelenskyy said.
“It depends on when the war ends and how it ends. And you have to ask people whether they want that or not. And there is also my family — they hardly have any time [to spend] with me.”
Zelenskyy stated that the presidency is a demanding job that takes a heavy toll on personal life.
“I appreciate the trust placed in me, but this job has taken
my family, it has taken our time together. This is not just a personal matter.
I need to discuss this with my wife and my children,” he said.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
