  3. When you think it couldn't get any more ridiculous… 🤡🤡🤡🤡

  4. Hitler was also man of the year in 1938

  5. Wow history repeats itself. Can someone look up and tell who was person of the year in 1938 just before WW2? I wonder who could be 🤔!!!

  6. He's a hero. A true President. Congrats Mr. Zelensky.

  7. 1938 : Hitler, 1939: Staline !!!

  8. Putin is a man of his word. You can't say that about our hypocritical leaders. First condemn Putin for bombing electricity infrastructure but don't tell them that Zelynsky ordered water mains to be shut off. And this same criminal (read Zelensky) is selected as man of the year in the west.😂😂😂😂. It's laughable time and time again how hypocritical we are. Mouthful about human rights while we are the baker of slavery and racism. Hypocrisy is a Western thing. So start holding a mirror in front of you! Only then are you entitled to speak.

  9. In 1938, he would be so proud.

  10. NATO FIVE EYES proxy war propaganda. Michael Chomiak is proud !

  11. 1938…you praised Adolf Hitler..now you praise Ukraine I'm confused…

  12. That's funny time magazine made Hitler man of the year as well

  13. No other contender for this award can come even close.

  14. I wonder how many billions this Killer of the Year earned on the blood of thousands of people?🤔

  15. The right and good choice ! But should have the opposite of him to name also, that is, Putin the evil of the year

  16. As a co-winner of the 2006 Time Person of the Year award I would like to welcome Mr. Zelensky to the club.

  17. Congrats Zelenskyy, Rotary Club member!

  18. Very well deserved. He's an amazing President. Cares for his people and Defenders. Glory to Ukraine 🙏 🇺🇦 💙 💛

  19. Indeed he would have been my choice too! It is hard for a leader to choose between surrender, and end the suffering of his people or courageously proceed inspite of great odds! But since people support him in the slogan " give me liberty or give me death " he has proceeded onwards with courage!

  20. western propaganda now more and more apparent

  21. Bravo President Zelensky. You greatly deserve this nomination, Along with this designation, accept God's blessing to assure you Peace and long life ahead with your nice family.

  22. 2007 Person of the Year was Vladimir Putin 😂

  23. Should had made Mighty Joe, TIME's Man of Year for stopping Putin, killing al-Qaeda #2, beating COVID, beating Trump/MAGA again & greatest midterm in 50 yr. But who reads TIME nowadays.

  24. Man of the year for what, begging America for money & killing his own ppl ?

  25. they gave him horns; classic.

  26. BRAVOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  27. I am Ukrainian, and I am very sorry for my suffering and dying people, because this war in Ukraine is actually not about Ukraine and Russia, but is about unresolved security issues between USA und Russia. And Zelensky is just a war monger and billionaire who became even much richer since the beginning of this war. He is a criminal and his place is in jail.

  28. VOLODÍMIR ZELENSKY IS JUST A PUPPET OF UNITED KINGDOM, FOR KEEP THIS WAR, THE GREAT BUSSINES ‼️‼️
    TIME MAGAZINE VITORIOUS HITLER TOO.

  29. For his loyalty in standing up for democracy, while removing any Ukrainian opposition parties and any media that showed any objection to the conflict. Tell me what is democratic about that. This magazine has form in selecting these ty of facist men .The said magazine honored adolf hitler man of the year in 1939. Time has a habit of picking N@zi.

  30. Times Magazine Person of the Year in 1939 was Adolf Hitler.

  31. Suport respect To Mr President Ukraina VOLODIMIR ZELENSKY👍👍🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦♥️🇲🇨🇲🇨

  32. I wonder how long it will take for Zelenski to Saddam into our new enemy "regime" and we're arming some russian opposition group to fight him and the billions of weapons we gave.

  33. Money launderer of the year plus 10% for the Big guy.
    Zelensky 👹 banned all Orthodox Churches in Ukraine.

  34. Time & MSM love a criminal who takes millions of $. I’m just surprised they didn’t use Hunter….

  35. I never knew Times had a murder of the year award

  36. Mil respeto a este presidente de Ucrania. 🇵🇦🇵🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦👍👍🤝🤝🙏🙏
