Ukrainian performer Alina Pash on the birthday of the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky recalled a warm acquaintance with him.

The artist said that she first met Vladimir Alexandrovich at the age of 17. Then she came to the capital with her parents, because she entered the Kyiv Municipal Academy of Variety and Circus Art.

Alina's family stayed with friends. As it turned out, they were neighbors with Vladimir Zelensky and were friends with him.

" It so happened that these friends were neighbors and friends of the Zelensky family and invited them also to the celebration of love and family. There, for the first time, I saw someone whom I had only seen on TV before.. " I remember how, in the Transcarpathian way, I did not lag behind in humor with Vladimir, asked for an autograph, where he wished victories, popularity, fame, and most importantly, mood and moments of good luck, because they will definitely be, "

The performer congratulated the president on his birthday and thanked him for everything he does for the country.

“After years, I look with respect and understand that this first feeling of sincerity has survived to this day.. Now it's our president and first lady that I'm proud of. And besides congratulations, I want to thank you. Thank you for giving hope and light to millions of Ukrainians,"
