An interpreter for a German news outlet broke down on-air while interpreting Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's speech.
In a video of Zelensky's speech, the translator for Welt can be heard saying that Russia is on the path of evil. Russia has the right to vote on the UN Security Council.
The interpreter chokes up while delivering the lines "Ukrainians, we know exactly what we are defending". We will definitely win.
