What Keeps Volodymyr Zelenskyy Strong?

at 10:15

From the episode: President Zelenskyy: Peace Is A Huge Compromise, The Horrific Atrocities Of Russian War Crimes!

Answer

Volodymyr Zelenskyy says his kids keep him strong and grounded. He wants them to be proud of him. He told himself he has to set an example for them: be strong and be as brave as possible. He added that maybe he does not have to, but that is what he told himself.

Steven Bartlett asked what Zelenskyy does to take care of himself and what keeps him strong, after Zelenskyy spoke about parents who lost a soldier. The parents knew it could happen. Zelenskyy said knowing and losing are completely different things. He is a human being and is not ashamed of who he is. He is not the strongest man in the world and is not a perfect person, but he tries to set an example. He said not to hide the pain. If you have it, you should not say you feel nothing, because human beings are alive and that is their weakness. It is also where a person's strength lies. His kids keep him grounded.
