Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he has lost count of assassination attempts he’s survived, comparing them to bouts of Covid.
In an interview with the British tabloid The Sun, he said that he’s survived "no fewer" than five or six attempts on his life since Russia invaded Ukraine last year, but that each subsequent attempt makes it less intimidating.
NBC News could not independently verify Zelenskyy’s claims about attempts on his life.
“The first one is very interesting, when it is the first time, and after that it is just like Covid,” Zelenskyy said. “First of all, people don’t know what to do with it and it’s looking very scary. And then after that, it is just intelligence sharing with you detail that one more group came to Ukraine to [attempt] this.”
Zelenskyy regularly moves around the country, visiting front lines and liberated cities, under strict security. In the capital, Kyiv, he works out of a high-security complex. In the early days of the war, he said he and his family were primary targets of Russia, but Ukraine has rarely publicly revealed any attempts on his life.

Zelenskyy told the Sun that Russia still “wants very much” to topple him from power, and he claimed to even know the code name of its latest mission to oust him; its deadline, he said, is the end of the year. ,p> “The name of operation is Maidan 3. It is meant to change the president,” he said. “Maybe it’s not by killing. I mean it’s changing. They will use any instruments they have.”

It’s hard to hit, successfully, such a small target...
Think about it — it’s like trying to assinate Peter Dinklage!
Oh, boo hoo.
Who cares. Go live in your American funded luxury houses you POS.
He’s not worthy of $1 from us. He’s having his nation demolished in order to retain land that they do not hold and have not held for years. His goal is ethnic cleansing even though those Ukrainians are forever connected to Russia by their ancestors.
Is everyone in public life a self-aggrandizing grifter?
What is it that you think that photo shows?
You can also ask yourself why your source uses blurred photos of heads of state, you don’t think it a little odd that these normal photos of heads of state are blurred by your source?
Here is a bigger version of your fake story, notice how blurry these professional media photos of the President of the United States meeting the President of Ukraine are?
Somebody needs a hug, and emotional support animal. Stat!!😂
Darn near....
That’s all a bunch of nonsense.
PROPAGANDA POST OF THE DAY AWARD FROM CIA TO TIMBER RATTLER
What a load of crap you post here.
He didn't say by the Russians. NBC's headline does though.
There are a lot of people who might want to assassinate Zelensky, Ukrainian politics is a rough and tumble world.
NBC also reported this:
Putin promised not to kill Zelenskyy, former Israeli prime minister says
I suspect Putin has ordered there be no assassinatiom attempts on Zelensky. One reason I think this is that Zelensky is still alive Also; Zelensky is a clownish figure, frequently the object of ridicule in the West. From what we hear he is also a poor military strategist.
I assume that Zelensky may eventually be assassinated, but not by Russians but by some of his own Ukrainian people. How would you feel about the man who ordered your daughter drafted and killed.
There has been a lot of speculation that after he's deposed he will seek exile in a foreign country. Apparently he owns homes in several. He has the birrh-right to live in Israel, as a Jew, of course. That may be his first choice for his post-presidential exile. Moving away from Ukraine to a country that might give him secret service protection would probably be a good idea to avoid being assassinated by angry Ukrainians. If Russia wants him dead it won't help much.
You aren’t curious about why your source posting the fake information uses blurred photos to mislead you?
You aren’t curious about who that really is being blurred out?
