Russo-Ukrainian War: Ukraine’s First Lady Olena Zelenska cries ‘very often’

The wife of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky says she frequently cries over the Russian war of aggression against her home country.

In comments published on Thursday by local media, Olena Zelenska said, “Today, I might cry again. It happens to me very often.”

“After all, I am a human being; I have feelings, and I cry,” the 45-year-old said.

She said it had been even worse for her immediately after the Russian attack on Ukraine in February last year.

“In the first days of the war, every attack hit me very hard.

“Even at official events, I cried,” she said.

“It’s not that I am hardened now, but I have to make every effort to finish the story.”
