Olina Zelenska left the bombardment of Kyiv and the shelters in which she regularly goes with her two children, to go to the top of the web in Lisbon. Ukraine’s first lady doubled down on calls for companies to help rebuild her country. We asked her what she wanted to say to many of Euronews’ Russian viewers:
“I can honestly say that it is very difficult for us to talk to the Russians, The Ukrainian first lady replied. In short: watch euronews, don’t watch Russia Today, don’t watch Russia Today, don’t watch Channel One, don’t watch Russia Today, and this is really the first step towards recovery. “
Olena Zelenska met Portuguese Prime Minister Antonio Costa. At the heart of the concerns of the Ukrainian president’s wife is a controversial tweet from Elon Musk, in which he offered peace in exchange for the annexed territories. She said she hoped this was an “accidental mistake” and added that the Ukrainian people were “impressed” for the help he had given their country’s war effort by providing Starlink satellite broadband service. A free service that Elon Musk recently questioned, causing alarm in Ukraine.
