Estonian leader Kaja Kallas was also named on the list.
As of Saturday afternoon, both Mr Zelensky and his predecessor, Petro Poroshenko, featured on the ministry’s list of people wanted on unspecified criminal charges.
Russia’s wanted list also includes scores of officials and legislators from Ukraine and Nato countries. Fellow Nato members Latvia, Lithuania and Poland have also pulled down monuments that are widely seen as an unwanted legacy of the Soviet occupation of those countries. The Kremlin has repeatedly sought to link Ukraine’s leaders to Nazism, even though the country has a democratically elected Jewish president who lost relatives in the Holocaust, and despite the aim of many Ukrainians to strengthen the country’s democracy, reduce corruption and move closer to the West.
The Holocaust, the Second World War and Nazism have been important tools for Mr Putin in his bid to legitimise Russia’s war in Ukraine.
