I’m Even Ready to Fight Putin Tomorrow: Zelensky

During the interview, the Ukrainian leader stated that a real man makes decisions without intermediaries and “strikes in the face himself.” He explained that he is ready to step into the ring with Putin at any moment. “A real man, if he wants to send a message to someone or wants to hit him in the face, does it himself. I’m even ready to fight Putin tomorrow,” Zelensky said.
