Video shared to social media showed the interpreter — a woman who remains unidentified at the time of this post and working for a German news outlet — pausing, choking up, and finally breaking into tears while translating Zeleskyy’s speech while on the air.

Zelenskyy in the speech was describing how the war-torn country had sustained another day of Russian attacks.

“Russia is on the path of evil,” Zelenskyy said in the speech. “The world must deprive Russia of the right to vote on the U.N. Security Council.”
