As the war between Russia and Ukraine continues, horrifying images of violence and destruction continue to propagate the news, along with the question: "When will it stop?" As of present writing, it is tough to determine.

Amid this turmoil, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy does not give up. Most likely, he will never surrender the fight for the sovereignty and honor of his country, knowing that the world rallies behind him.

However, Zelensky, his wife Olena Zelenska, and their kids are also in great danger as Russian forces want to capture them. Most likely, being entertainers initially, they did not envision this suffering back then. But they persevere for the love of their country.

Walking on a Tight Rope

When asked about how is she and her family holding up? Zelensky's wife said, "It's like walking a tight rope."

"If you start thinking how you do it, you lose time and balance. So, to hold on, you just must go ahead and do what you do. In the same way, as far as I know, all Ukrainians hold on," she said in an interview with Chief International Anchor Christiane Amanpour published by CNN.

The First Lady also disclosed that she and the kids had been physically away from the President during the war. They get in touch with him by phone.

Ukrainian defense officials claim that Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov a.k.a. Vladimir Putin's "dragon," sent in an elite squad to assassinate Zelenskyy in March, according to a report from  ABC News.

Like her husband, Ukraine's First Lady Olena Zelenska refused to evacuate or surrender. Instead, she joins the fight against their invaders by focusing on humanitarian and children's concerns and campaigning for global awareness of the sufferings that Ukrainians are going through during the war.

"The main thing for Ukraine today is that the whole other world hears and sees us, and it is important that our war does not become "habitual," so that our victims do not become statistics," Zelenksa said.

For that reason, she never gets tired of communicating with people via foreign media. "Don't get used to our grief!"

Telling the True Stories of War  

Since day one of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the first lady has been using different social media platforms, including Telegram, to connect with Ukrainians and tell the true story of the dire situation on the ground, including children being killed.

People reported Zelenska shared to Vogue one situation on the ground that made her "speechless."

"Graves near playgrounds. I can't even describe it... But it is necessary to look at it."

Aside from the grim scenarios of war, she also pays tribute to Ukrainian troops and the Ukrainian resistance. She also writes about the women who participate "everywhere" in the military and defense forces as medics and protectors of their families and children.

"For example, only they can go abroad. So, in some ways their role is even more diverse than men's; this is more than equality!"

Moreover, she engages in helping the most vulnerable, sick people to evacuate and in obtaining medical equipment for children in hospitals.

Zelenska urged people worldwide to stay informed about what was going on in her nation. She acknowledged and thanked the United States and NATO members for their backing.
