Zelensky says would have fought to death had Russians stormed Kyiv headquarters

Hindustan Times  

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy carries a pistol and would have fought to the death with his inner circle had the Russians stormed his Kyiv headquarters at the start of the war, he said in an interview shown on Saturday. Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskiy speaks with Chinese President Xi Jinping via phone line, in Kyiv, Ukraine. In the first days after the Feb. 24, 2022 invasion, Ukrainian officials said Russian intelligence units tried to break into Kyiv but were defeated and failed to reach Bankova Street in the centre, home to the presidential offices. "I think if they had gone inside, into the administration, we would not be here," Zelenskiy said.
