On including both Zelensky and Putin in the list, TIME's editor-in-chief and CEO said "they are the poles of this list, and of this moment".
"When our team gets together to choose the TIME100, we have one barometer: influence. Who shaped the year? Who stood up? Who stood out? Influence, of course, may be for good or for ill -- a dichotomy never more visible than in this year's TIME 100, which includes both Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelensky. They are the poles of this list, and of this moment. The Russian dictator behind a brutal war, and his foe, the Ukrainian President, whose leadership has made him a rare heroic figure in our divisive time," the editor-in-chief said.
