Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s resume is more impressive than I knew.

I’ll be honest. Before Russia invaded Ukraine, I never heard of Volodymyr Zelenskyy. His first name is tricky to spell, and when I heard it on the news, the anchors pronounced it “Vladimir.” I have an Uncle Vladimir, so I assumed Volodymyr was spelled the same. I need to brush up on my Eastern European names and spellings.

President Zelenskyy has an impressive resumé. When I read about his prior accomplishments, I didn’t believe half of them. All I knew was he’s the President of an Eastern European country. He’s brave enough to fight against Putin and Russian soldiers who are committing war crimes in Ukraine. Remember that guy who was President in the USA before Biden? How many people believed his bullshit stories about his accomplishments and statements about how everybody loved him? Not this girl, but that’s a story for another website.

Where to start…

Volodymyr Zelenskyy attended Kryvyy Rih Economic Institute in Kyiv. He graduated in 2000 with a law degree.

President Zelenskyy won the first season of the Ukraine version of “Dancing With the Stars” in 2006. Watch the video. He has more moves than a water bed!
