Mr. Zelensky, a former comedian who has captured the world’s attention for leading Ukraine’s resistance to Russia’s invasion, appeared at the Globes to rally support for his cause.

“It is now 2023,” Mr. Zelensky said. “The war in Ukraine is not over yet.” He went on to say he believed Ukraine would emerge victorious. “There are still battles and tears ahead.”

Last year, just after the war had begun, he made a plea to the public at the Grammy Awards. Almost a year later, his message to the Golden Globes recalled the first ever Golden Globes ceremony, which were held in January 1944 during World War II.

“There will be no third world war,” he declared. “Ukraine will stop the Russian aggression on our land.”
