Zelenskyy says he no longer sleeps, calls Bucha massacre worst day of his life

welt.de (German) —

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy revealed in a podcast interview that he no longer sleeps, describing his personal toll from the war and calling the Bucha massacre the worst day of his life. In the nearly two-hour conversation with British entrepreneur Steven Bartlett, Zelenskyy said he spends nights speaking with Ukrainian air defense forces, preventing rest. He described wanting "pure revenge" after seeing bodies scattered in Bucha, though he acknowledged his pain is less than that of parents who lost children. Zelenskyy also addressed tensions with US President Donald Trump, calling it unfair that Trump blames him for Russian aggression and energy prices. He urged Trump to apply the same rhetoric to Putin, arguing this could bring Russia to negotiations.
