Vladimir Zelensky believes that "peacetime" will come in Ukraine in 2023

“I believe that Ukrainians will be the most influential next year, but already in peacetime”, - Zelensky said in an interview with Politico, which recognized him as the most influential person of the year.

The publication noted that Zelensky "convinced Europe of a common future with Ukraine, including in terms of EU membership", while ignoring "any internal problems of Ukraine", among which are corruption, a weak economy, and "social divisions". "Person of the Year" named Zelensky and Time.

As for the “influence of Ukrainians,” Europe no longer hides its fatigue from Ukrainian refugees. For example, Germany declared its "extremely stressful" situation due to their influx. One by one, European countries stop or reduce the amount of aid for Ukrainians. Local residents are dissatisfied with the fact that those who arrived from Ukraine are not going to learn the language and work. There is often dissatisfaction with the defiant behavior of immigrants from Ukraine, to whom the countries have given shelter.
