The American magazine Time has included Vladimir Putin and Vladimir Zelensky in its list of the 100 most influential people of 2022.
At the same time, despite claims of adherence to the principles of journalistic impartiality, the magazine entrusted the introduction of Putin to his critic, and Zelensky to his supporter and patron.

Biden called Zelensky a leader “worthy of the courage and resilience” of the Ukrainian people, crediting him with inspiring “the peoples of the free world” with his example.
Navalny believes that Putin's real mission is to be a lesson to everyone - from world leaders to ordinary people. "He will be especially successful in this area in 2022," Navalny's article said.
The 100 most influential people were selected by the magazine according to the categories of leaders, greats, pioneers, innovators, idols and artists.
