"Ukraine war: As UK counts pennies, we count casualties - Olena Zelenska"

https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-62766917

"Olena Zelenska told Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg that if support for Ukraine was strong the crisis would be shorter. In an interview recorded in Kyiv, she also said it was important to keep highlighting the human toll of the war. And Mrs Zelenska said while she rarely saw her husband, they talk every day. The first lady, who has been married to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky since 2003, spoke to the BBC's Laura Kuenssberg in Kyiv."

"The prices are going up in Ukraine as well. But in addition our people get killed. 'So when you start counting pennies on your bank account or in your pocket, we do the same and count our casualties,' she said."
