Confirmed for the first time! Zelensky reveals that the first person who asked him to evacuate was Biden

It has been nearly five years since the war between Ukraine and Russia began. Both sides have suffered heavy casualties, and peace is still far away. In a recent interview with a talk show, Ukrainian President Zelensky revealed for the first time that the first person to express his willingness to assist him in the evacuation was the then US President Biden. Zelensky's reply at that time, "I want ammunition, not a free ride," has become his famous saying.

According to comprehensive foreign media reports, Zelensky accepted a nearly two-hour interview with the popular British talk show "The Diary of a CEO" this week. Among them, Zelensky confirmed for the first time that the person who originally shouted to him to evacuate was Biden. This incident immediately triggered heated discussions in foreign communities.

Zelensky revealed in an exclusive interview that during the nearly five years of war, it was a fantasy for him to sleep for eight hours, but he was not complaining. This was his life, and to be honest, he couldn't sleep at all. There were many demands and arrangements waiting for him to deal with and discuss every day.

At the beginning of the war in 2022, Zelensky's sentence "I need ammunition, not a ride." became a famous saying that quickly spread around the world. Many U.S. media reports at the time believed that the person who suggested his evacuation was the then U.S. President Biden. However, due to international relations and security considerations at the time, U.S. officials did not acknowledge this statement. Some U.S. officials even stated that they "did not remember Biden saying that." The fact-checking agency also determined that the case was "difficult to independently verify." Later, most of the media reported the matter with words such as "the United States proposed to assist in evacuation."

However, Zelensky confirmed on the show that the words "I want ammunition, not a free ride" were originally his answer to Biden. Zelensky clearly pointed out in the interview that Biden was the first person to suggest evacuation to him, and many people in Europe later made similar suggestions.

Zelensky also admitted that he never thought there would be a full-scale invasion war. When the incident occurred, the Russian army quickly approached Kiev like an "avalanche." He revealed that he was with his family at the time and suddenly received a call from his office indicating that there was a missile attack. He immediately told his wife and children that "the war has begun" and then rushed to the office. He still remembers shaking his wife awake and shouting, "Wake up, the war has begun! I love you and I'll call you." Then he rushed out the door.

He said he was the second person to arrive at the office, but he did not reveal who was the first. He still remembers calling everyone in and working like crazy, and it was a really bad day. Life has changed since then, everything has changed.
