The Estonian president's gift is a reference to the series Servant of the People, in which the main character, President Vasily Holoborodko, played by Zelensky, — commutes to work by bicycle.

According to Zelensky, he himself wanted to commute to work by bicycle, but he is not allowed to for security reasons.
