A quiet, charming, unassuming man - and arguably the most popular leader on Earth.
World Affairs editor
Zelensky seems pretty much as he appears, and like a lot of actors he has a clear-sighted appreciation of himself and the limits of his abilities. Whichever of his top officials suggested that he should appear on television wearing that during the frightening days of February and March, when the Russians were very close and the streets of Kyiv were full of the rust-coloured steel tank-traps called "hedgehogs", deserves a special award.Zelensky struck precisely the right note - tough, dressed-down, practical and ready for a fight.
He must be the most popular leader on Earth at the moment, and he is winning his personal public relations duel with President Putin hands down; Putin angry and scowling and reluctant to leave the Kremlin, Zelensky making trips to newly liberated towns. He is even showing sympathy for the young Russian conscripts who are sent to fight in Ukraine, saying to me, "without weapons and body armour - just cannon-fodder".
