Volodymyr Zelensky is 6th President of Ukraine (according to the current period of Ukraine as a state, since its independence from the Soviet Union in August 1991). Before entering politics, Zelensky was a comedian, actor, screenwriter, film producer, and director.
Before his political career, he graduated with a law degree and created a production company: Kvartal 95, which produces films, cartoons and comedy shows for television, including “Servant of the People”, where Zelensky played the president of Ukraine. The series aired from 2015 to 2019.
In March 2018, 95 employees of Kvartal created a political party with the same name as the TV show.
Zelensky announced his candidacy for the 2019 Ukrainian presidential election on the night of December 31, 2018.
Zelensky won the election with 73.22% of the vote in the second round, defeating Petro Poroshenko.
