Zelensky Names Hardest Day For Him During War
"The war started on February 24, 2022. I didn't think there would be a full-scale invasion. I was with my family and told my wife and the kids: 'The war has started. I love you. I'll call you,' and ran out," Zelensky said.
Recalling the hardest day of the war, the president spoke about visiting Bucha shortly after its liberation.
"We liberated Bucha, and I went there. Bodies of children, adults, and elderly people were lying everywhere – chopped meat, butchered them, hands tied, tortured, and then buried in pits. What if a mass grave containing 500 tortured people were found today in the United States or Britain, God forbid, how do you forgive that?" he said.
