TIME's 'Person of the Year' is Volodymyr Zelenskyy and the spirit of UkraineTIME announced Wednesday that President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and the spirit of Ukraine were the magazine's 2022 "Person of the Year".“The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride,” Zelenskyy famously told the U.S., after officials offered to move the president away from Kyiv, to a more secure location soon after the invasion began.Zelenskyy has often been seen at the frontlines of the war, appearing in the part-Russian controlled territory of Donbas, and most recently, in Kherson after Russia withdrew troops from the city in November.Before becoming president of Ukraine in April 2019, Zelenskyy was an actor and comedian, appearing in a well-known Ukrainian sitcom called "Servant of the People" where he played a high school teacher who wound up becoming president.The others were Elon Musk (last year's "Person of the Year"), Chinese leader Xi Jinping, the U.S. Supreme Court, U.S. Republican politician Liz Cheney, the philanthropist MacKenzie Scott, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, protesters in Iran, gun safety advocates, and U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen."
