TIME Magazine has unveiled its 2022 person of the year, and the title goes to Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky and “the spirit of Ukraine.”

The award goes to a person or an event that has shaped and influenced the world globally over the last 12 months. TIME‘s credited Zelensky with making, “courageousness contagious!”

Editor-in-chief of TIME, Edward Felsenthal said: “This year’s choice was the most clear-cut in memory. Whether the battle for Ukraine fills one with hope or with fear, Volodymyr Zelensky galvanized the world in a way we haven’t seen in decades.”
