In addition to a detailed peace plan to end Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, President Volodymyr Zelensky has a less conventional idea for ending geopolitical crises like this: letting dogs rule the world.
In one of his rare periods of inactivity as a wartime leader, Zelensky, speaking to Reuters via videoconference on Wednesday (8), suggested that man’s best friend could do better than humanity when it comes to dealing with with the global scenario.
“Sometimes I’m looking at all these wars or looking at the whole crisis, the Middle East crisis. It’s not just Ukraine, across Africa and the Middle East. Sometimes I look at this and think the best way [é] if this planet is the planet of dogs,” he said at the Reuters NEXT conference in New York, responding to a question about what still makes him laugh.
Russia’s war with Ukraine, now in its 21st month, has altered Europe’s security architecture and caused ripple effects in Africa and Asia, which have experienced food shortages due to Russia’s de facto blockade of the Black Sea. from Russia.
Kiev’s Western partners have provided crucial financial and military support to the country in the conflict, but are now also dealing with Israel’s war.
Along the front line, Ukrainian forces have been fighting for months to reclaim territory occupied by Russia in a counteroffensive, but have made only incremental gains.
Zelensky, who is promoting a ten-point peace proposal, said his dogs provide much-needed relief when he spends time with his wife and children, and are “always funny.”
“Sometimes I really don’t understand people,” the Ukrainian president added with a smile.
