Zelensky and Poroshenko are carrying rifles into battle as we are posting comments on this thread.
- s1artibartfast 5y agoI find that hard to believe. do you have a reference?
- myko 5y agoThey're both in Kyiv, during an interview earlier today Poroshenko asked the west for more help and talked about the steadfastness of his resistance group, which he is fighting with, during the interview he showed off his rifle: https://www.cnn.com/videos/world/2022/02/25/petro-poroshenko-former-ukrainian-president-rifle-kyiv-newday-berman-vpx.cnn https://www.cnn.com/videos/world/2022/02/25/petro-poroshenko... I recall seeing an image of Zelensky carrying a rifle and wearing tactical gear but can't find it, maybe I misremembered that. He is in Kyiv though, unless he shot this video and left immediately: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/02/25/world/europe/ukraine-zelensky-kyiv-video.html https://www.nytimes.com/2022/02/25/world/europe/ukraine-zele...
- s1artibartfast 5y agoOK, that makes more sense. I guess you were just using figurative language. I believe that they are in Kyiv, and armed, and interacting with the troops. Fighting in battle would be a whole different story. It would certainly be brave, but unadvisable for Zelensky to be spending time in firefights instead of doing his job.
