Zelenskiy was speaking via video link to the editor-in-chief of Reuters, Alessandra Galloni, at the Reuters NEXT conference. She asked him for an example of something that has made him laugh amid conflict.
He said it is “always funny” when he is with his wife, children and dogs.
“Sometimes I am thinking, looking at all these wars, looking at all the crises… and think that the best way (would be) if this planet will be the planet of dogs,” he said.
(Reuters) – Apart from a detailed peace plan to end Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has a less conventional idea for ending geopolitical crises like these: let dogs run the world.
In the rare downtime he gets as a wartime leader, Zelenskiy, speaking to Reuters by video link on Wednesday, suggested man’s best friend might fare better when it comes to getting along on the global stage.
“Sometimes I’m … looking at all these wars or looking at all the crisis, Middle East crisis. It’s not only Ukraine, everywhere in Africa and the Middle East.
Dog rescued after getting its head stuck in wheel rim
A dog has been rescued from a tight spot by Queensland firefighters armed with a bottle of olive oil and a lot of patience.
The puppy, named Bonnie, stuck its head through the middle of a wheel rim but couldn’t pull itself back out.
It was up to the firefighters at Mareeba Fire and Rescue to figure out a solution to the sticky situation.
“Crews used lots of olive oil and patience to assist in the extrication,” Queensland Fire and Emergency Services said in a Facebook post.
“We hear she’s recovering well.”
Mareeba is a rural town in Far North Queensland, inland from Cairns.
