Black sweatshirt and olive-green cargo pants – the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyj prefers to appear in public in a military-style outfit.
It has become a familiar sight: on his visits abroad, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stands in a military-style outfit next to heads of state and government, who are dressed as usual in shirts and dark suits. It was the same on Sunday when Selenskyj visited Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier and Chancellor Olaf Scholz. The 45-year-old wore a black sweatshirt and olive-green cargo pants in Berlin.
The inscription “United24” was printed next to a Ukrainian flag on Zelenskyj’s sweater – that’s the name of an Internet donation platform that Kiev launched in early May 2022. As of Sunday, the platform has raised more than $337 million in donations from more than 100 countries. According to the latest official information, this was used to support, among other things, the development of the fleet of naval drones and all projects related to drones for the front. In addition to the military sector, the funds are now also used in the medical sector.
