After a year, Ukraine's identity Zelensky has been adjusted from a "man of the hour" to an "idealist", a change that reflects a change in the attitude of Western countries towards him. In the early stages of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, when Zelensky was inU.S. CongressHe was highly regarded when he gave his speeches, but as time went on, he encountered more and more skepticism and criticism. Although Zelensky has achieved some achievements in pushing the Ukrainian army to receive economic assistance and advanced **, he has failed to achieve goals such as joining NATO and the European Union, and withdrawing Russian troops. This adjustment by the US media is also a kind of irony for the failure of Zelensky's promise. However, we can't dismiss "dreamer" as a derogatory term, as the list includes other countriesPoliticsLeaders.
Last year, Zelensky was inU.S. CongressDuring his speech, he promised to make Ukraine "resolutely resist Russia." This statement has been highly praised by Western countriesU.S. CongressA bill was also passed authorizing the provision of $300 million to foreign countries to UkraineMilitarySubsidize. These actions not only highlight Zelensky's special status, but also highlight the West's concern and support for the Ukraine issue.
However, in 2023, the West's expectations of Zelensky are beginning to change. US House Speaker McCarthy has publicly questioned Zelenskyy's performance, and he wants to know whether Ukraine can come up with an effective accountability mechanism and a strategic plan for victory after providing Ukraine with huge military aid. In addition, there has been a patient attrition of NATO member countries' support for Ukraine, which did not give a clear timetable, only emphasizing "long-term support" for Ukraine.
28th, "Politician".News NetworkThe annual list of "Europe's most influential people" was published, which ranked Zelensky as the first "dreamer". This shows that Zelensky has somehow failed to deliver on his promises and goals. Although Ukraine has received economic assistance and advanced ** from Western countries, they have not achieved their goals of joining NATO and the European Union, Russia's withdrawal of troops, etc. Therefore, there is a certain irony in calling Zelensky a "dreamer".
However, we cannot dismiss "dreamer" as a derogatory term. The list also includes leaders of other countries, such as Russian opposition leader Navalny and French Interior Minister DarmaninEuropean ParliamentSpeaker of the House of Representatives, Mezzola, etc. We can see that "dreamer" does not refer to a person's ability or achievement, but to their spirit of pursuing ideals and dreams.
Despite Zelensky's initial successes, he faces a number of dilemmas and challenges. First of all, it is difficult for Ukraine to achieve its substantive goals and has not been able to recover any of the cities. UkrainiansThe people are exhausted by their "two years of fighting and trying to regain territory," and expectations and enthusiasm for Ukraine are beginning to fade.
Secondly, Ukraine's desire to join NATO and the EU has encountered difficulties. NATO member states have been slow to give a clear timetable, only expressing "long-term support" for Ukraine. In addition, Ukraine has asked Europe and the United States to take more aid to it, but progress in this regard has been slow. These predicaments have prevented Zelensky from truly fulfilling his promises and goals, becoming a "dreamer".
Zelensky has changed from a "man of the hour" to an "idealist", and this transformation makes people think about some questions.

We need to look at it rationallyPoliticsThe commitment and actions of leaders should also be sensitive and tolerant of their plight and challenges. After all, achieving dreams is a difficult and long process, and it takes time and effort for any leader to achieve their goals.
In Zelensky's example, we see the dilemmas and challenges he faced, as well as his efforts to achieve his ideals. Despite the fact that there is a certain gap between reality and dreams, Zelensky still plays an important role in pushing Ukraine forward. His story reminds us that it takes hard work and constant struggle to achieve dreams, and that the role of a leader is not just about commitment, but also about action and putting it into practice.
In short, Zelensky's identity change from a "man of the hour" to an "idealist" not only reflects the change in the West's attitude towards him, but also triggers a pair of criticismPoliticsThinking between a leader's expectations and actual actions. In the real world, leaders face challenges and dilemmas, and it takes time and effort to achieve their dreams. We need to be rational about the efforts and commitments of our leaders, and at the same time be understanding and supportive of the difficulties they face. It is only in practice that dreams become reality.
