Olena Zelenska: ’War has pushed me close to psychological burnout’ | Exclusive interview in Ukraine
For many people in Ukraine, it is not President Zelensky, with his trademark green sweatshirts and regular addresses to the nation, who provides comfort to the war-ravaged country, but rather his wife, Olena.
Composed, articulate and by her husband’s side on the international stage whenever their conflicting schedules allow, the First Lady of Ukraine has inadvertently become a powerful symbol of hope.
Yet behind her polished exterior Olena Zelenska has battled with the same anxieties and vulnerabilities known to ordinary Ukrainians, who continue to suffer the agonising consequences of Putin’s invasion.
In an interview from inside the Office of the President in Kyiv, Mrs Zelenska told The Telegraph that she has come close to “burn-out” as she struggled to cope with the magnitude of Putin’s war, while maintaining a brave face for her country and her children.
