"In President Zelensky, the people of Ukraine have a leader worthy of his bravery and fortitude," wrote US President Joe Biden.
"The nations of the free world, drawing inspiration from President Zelensky's example, are more united, more determined and more focused than at any time in recent memory," the US leader added.
Russian president on the list
The chief of the general staff of the Ukrainian armed forces, Valery Zaluzhny, is also included on this Time list, as is Russian President Vladimir Putin, who ordered the invasion of neighboring Ukraine three months ago.
"The range of ways in which influence can be exerted has never been clearer than in this #TIME100, which includes Putin ... & Zelensky," Time editor Edward Felsenthal said in a Twitter message. "The dictator behind a brutal war & the Ukrainian president, a rare heroic figure in our divisive times," he added.
