So, why is Ukraine's president so quiet about Russian aggression?

Only once have I seen media coverage of Zelenskyy, Ukraine's president, talking about the Russian aggression.
When I saw the media report he was not happy about America potentially creating hysteria. We need to hear more from Zelenskyy protecting his own country. IMO

he doesn't want runs on the banks and panic. What can he do but push for solidarity? It is going to get bad I'm afraid.
