Ukrainian president becomes unlikely sex symbol as photos defending Kyiv emerge

The Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelensky, has become an unlikely sex symbol after photos of him in military gear defending Kyiv emerged.

President Zelensky has been praised for his strong leadership during the ongoing battle against Putin's invading forces, which has now entered its fourth day.

While many praised the former comedian for his bravery, quipping that he was 'no joke', now his fans are pursuing a different angle - commenting on how attractive he is.

Some said that he was 'so hot' while others described him as having 'more sex appeal than Trudeau', referring to the Canadian Prime Minister who is known for his fiery looks.

President Zelensky has an interesting career history, as he started his presidential campaign as a bit of a joke but ended up winning, and now he's a war leader who has been praised for his bravery against Putin.

He's made scores of fans in the process, especially when he told the US " I need ammunition, not a ride " as he turned down their offer of a safe route out of the country, according to American officials.

Images of him wearing combat gear while leading troops in Kyiv have been shared online, and now the internet is swooning.

One fan said: "Is Volodymyr Zelensky kind of hot?"
