Fatigue from the war unleashed by Russia will mean the demise of Ukraine. First Lady Olena Zelenska made this statement in an interview with the prominent British broadcaster BBC News.

"In simple terms, we cannot afford to grow tired of this situation, because otherwise, we will perish. And if the world grows tired, it will simply allow us to perish. We need help very much," emphasized the President's wife in response to a question from BBC correspondent Laura Kuenssberg.

At the same time, she called Russian aggression a dangerously chain reaction that could spread worldwide.

"Many destructive forces are currently watching whether the world will stop aggression in Ukraine... If influential global organizations limit themselves to mere 'concern,' all current and future aggressors will feel they can proceed," said the President's wife.

Olena Zelenska stated that due to Russian attacks, only a third of Ukrainian children can attend classes in person, posing a significant challenge for the country and education. She also shared the experience of Kharkiv region, where a protected underground educational space is being constructed, capable of accommodating about 500 children and teachers from local schools simultaneously.

The First Lady emphasized that despite everything, children have the right to a safe and complete education and strongly desire a normal rhythm of life.
