One of the winners of the contest from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, Volodymyr Hulyk, publicly spoke out against incumbent Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
According to information on the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry website, Volodymyr Volodymyrovych Hulyk took the position of consular agent at the Consulate General of Ukraine in Lublin.
On Facebook in April 2019, during the presidential race, Volodymyr Hulyk supported former president Petro Poroshenko and reposted discrediting posts and memes against incumbent president Volodymyr Zelensky.


One of the posts compared the campaign videos of the two main presidential candidates. According to the author, Poroshenko made 0 cuts and 0 effects in 1 minute and 46 seconds, but provided 1 shot. Zelensky, meanwhile, made 10 cuts, 7 effects and 11 shots in 1 minute and 8 seconds.
In another post, volunteer Kseniya Klym demanded that Zelensky “apologize to all Ukrainians for his unacceptable cynicism”.
On social media, a repost often means agreement with the publication. An author may add their own comment to someone else's post on their page, but given the absence of such comments on these reposts, it can be assumed that the new Ukrainian consular agent was against Zelensky's election as president of Ukraine.
