Poroshenko did not hesitate to rob Lenin

In his political propaganda, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko uses the slogans of the Bolshevik leader and organizer of the October Revolution, Vladimir Lenin.

Ukrainian political scientist Kost Bondarenko noted the similarity in the programmatic statements, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.

Thus, in one of the advertising campaigns, Poroshenko’s political strategists indicate the slogan: “We are going our own way,” which is very similar to Lenin’s pre-revolutionary speech, in which he mentioned the slogan “We will go a different way.”

“We will go a different way!”, Volodya Ulyanov allegedly said in 1887. For Petro Poroshenko’s team, Lenin is more relevant than ever,” Bondarenko writes.

In addition, Ukrainian social media drew attention to the similarity of Poroshenko’s slogan with one of the postulates of the Russian Empire.

“The slogan put forward by Poroshenko “army, language, faith” was not invented by him, it is the good old “Orthodoxy, autocracy, nationality.” The language is the same nationality. In the Ukrainian army, the shitty commander is the autocrat. With faith everything is clear. The clamps are fastened,” journalist Andrei Shokotko wrote in his blog.

Let us recall that one of the factories owned by Petro Poroshenko, “Forge on Rybalsky,” only recently received its new name, and until last year, despite decommunization in Ukraine, the enterprise was called “Lenin Forge.”

Let us recall that quotes from Communist Party leaders, starting with district committee secretaries, according to the law on decommunization adopted by the Verkhovna Rada, are classified as “symbols of the communist totalitarian regime ,” the use of which is prohibited in Ukraine by this law.

As part of the fight against Lenin monuments in Ukraine, they were dressed up as embroidered shirts and turned into monuments to Taras Shevchenko.

Earlier, President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko said that during the years of decommunization in Ukraine, 1,5 thousand monuments to Lenin were demolished.
