HARDTALK: PRESIDENT ZELENSKYY VOWS TO STEP DOWN IF HE CANNOT END UKRAINE'S SIX-YEAR WAR WITH RUSSIA

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy appeared on the BBC's flagship HARDtalk interview show in early October during his official state visit to the UK. The Ukrainian leader discussed his efforts to bring the six-year war with Russia to an end and defended his record in office against criticism that he has failed to live up to promises made on the campaign trail in spring 2019 that he would fundamentally change the face of Ukrainian politics and end decades of chronic corruption.
