Zelensky compares Russian assassination attempts to "Groundhog Day"

What he's saying: Zelensky says that any person is afraid when they learn about an attempt on their life for the first, second, third and fourth time.

• "But when it becomes repetitive, do you remember that film, 'Groundhog Day'?" Zelensky told Swan when asked about the assassination attempts. "I wake up in the morning and it's still the same."
• In the movie, Bill Murray wakes up to find himself reliving Groundhog Day over and over again.
• "When we decided to defend our country, to stand up and to stay in Ukraine ... to keep our positions, hold our defense lines ... we understood that that was our life from our point on," he added.
• "There are many deaths, too many deaths ... I am still alive and that's why it's me talking to you, it's not any kind of technology being used."
