 "I agree with the theory that marriage gets stronger with challenges," she said, "I think in our case it would be the same."

Zelenska said that she and her husband have "become more interested in each other" since the war's onset.

"That is why I wish that this challenge can make us more united," she said.

The first lady turned to her husband. "What do you think about it?"

"My answer wouldn’t be different," responded President Zelenskyy.
