The spouse of the Ukrainian President, Olena Zelenska, said this in an interview with CNN’s Chief International Anchor Christiane Amanpour, Ukrinform reports.
“If you look closely, it becomes clear that every Ukrainian is a target for Russians: Every woman, every child," the First Lady said.
Mrs. Zelenska believed that the people who had recently died from a Russian missile while trying to evacuate from Kramatorsk were not members of the presidential family, but just Ukrainians.
“So the number one target for the enemy is all of us,” said the First Lady.
The President's wife stressed that the main thing for Ukraine today was that the whole other world heard and saw us.
“It is important that our war does not become "habitual," so that our victims do not become statistics. That's why I communicate with people through foreign media,” said Olena Zelenska.
