Zelensky himself is behaving as a courageous leader should. He had the opportunity to leave, knowing he was in his words, “target number one” on the Russian hit list. But the comedian and television star — the guy some thought was the joke candidate, the outsider who like President Donald Trump surprisingly won the seat — is staying to do what he can to give strength and support his nation.

Here’s former president Petro Poroshenko saying he’s with a citizen brigade in the street with a Kalashnikov, and they will hold out (fight) Putin, “forever.”
Famous Hall of Fame boxers – the Klitschko brothers – were also vowing to fight. Vitaly is the mayor of Kyiv. Wladimir enlisted in the reserves in February.
Vitaly Skakun, a Marine engineer, reportedly stayed behind to make sure a bridge was blown up to slow the Russian advance, knowing it would cost him his life.
