“Banal plagiarism. The new president Zelensky stole a whole paragraph from the speech of Petro Poroshenko at the congress of the European Solidarity Party, ”wrote Tsygolko in his Facebook.

Also, the spokesman said he was pleased that Zelensky "listens to Poroshenko." At the same time, he recommended Zelensky "to hire a speechwriter."

Earlier, Zelensky at a meeting with the chairman of the European Council, Donald Tusk, said that Ukraine’s entry into the EU would be the death of the Russian “imperial project.”
