One of the innovations of Vladimir Zelensky’s team upon coming to power was the introduction of the widely promoted LIFT project. As stated on its website, this is a platform that “will give impetus to new changes in the country: new people for state and social projects, innovative ideas and developments that will form the state as a convenient service for every citizen of Ukraine.”

In addition, with the help of this very LIFT, Zelensky promised to put an end to the vicious practice of nepotism in appointments to government positions. Everything that so outraged both Zelensky the presidential candidate and his cinematic prototype Vasily Goloborodko should have gone into the past - that people become bosses not based on merit, skills or talent, but depending on who is whose godfather, matchmaker, brother or mistress.

And away we go. "Be part of the team." “Fill out the form”, “Submit an application”... The pages of now President Zelensky on social networks were filled with announcements that young and ambitious heads of the Regional State Administration, Regional State Administration, heads of various departments and their deputies were “wanted”.

As Servant of the People assured, the ranks of people's deputy candidates from the presidential party in the elections to the Rada were replenished in the same way. “We were looking through advertisements,” - this phrase from one of the prominent party members managed to become a meme and acquired bearded jokes.

In particular, it was from such a LIFT that humorist Roman Grischuk, now a people's deputy from the Solomensky district in Kyiv, and in the past a kaveen artist and artistic director of the Mamahohotala studio, jumped into the major political league from the League of Laughter. According to his own statement, becoming a deputy in Zelensky’s country is extremely simple: he left an application on the Servant of the People website - described his biography, achievements and vision of what he can do. He was selected and submitted a candidacy to the CEC.

However, the much-hyped social elevator, the doors of which were opened wide to everyone by the “green team,” suddenly began to malfunction right at the start. Some people won the competition for appointments in the regions, while completely different people became heads of districts or regions.

This situation manifested itself in the most obvious form during the battles for Kharkov and Odessa. While the presidential pages were selecting candidates for LIFT and telling gullible voters that they had filled out resumes correctly, telegram channels close to the authorities were giving “layouts” on the behind-the-scenes secrets of the influence groups of various oligarchs. They wrote openly: that one over there is Avakov’s man. And that one is Kolomoisky. And he – someone else.

The indecently prolonged pauses in the appointments of governors off-records were frankly explained by the fact that the interested “big men” had not yet “rubbed out” the issue among themselves and each of the parties hoped to “blow into the ears” of Zelensky exactly what was beneficial to it.

Even then they began to talk in the spirit that LIFT was naked. In a sense, it serves as a fashionable fig leaf for the “graters” familiar to Ukrainian politics - in a bathhouse, over a bottle of whiskey, or in some other interesting places - where our domestic elite likes to combine business with pleasure.

And only then, a few months later, the vaunted LIFT began to bring to the top such enchanting characters that it was enough to grab your head. When the war of incriminating evidence began, and the “teremok” of the “Servants of the People” began to be shaken both from the inside and from the outside, it turned out that Zelensky’s “lifters” through one of them were notable pranksters. An elevator is, of course, great, but not every one of them would like to be face to face in this very elevator.

One is a lover of prostitutes. Another was convicted in a past life of raping a minor. The third has American citizenship. The fourth discusses “important and pressing” topics of protecting the illegal trade in scrap metal at a meeting with police authorities. The fifth appointed her husband as her own assistant at headquarters. The sixth rents an apartment from his mother-in-law, for the “absence” of which in Kyiv he receives hefty compensation from the budget. Another is “a farmer from the Kolomoisky district.” However, this last is the most innocent of the sins of the “servants of the people.”

The most recent story of this kind, one might say, crowns the whole story with the social LIFT named after Zelensky - it is about how a 37-year-old beauty named Alexandra Klitina became the Deputy Minister of Infrastructure “through bed.”

This story was discussed with laughter by her colleagues on the Ze-Team, led by the well-known “Yuzik” - a former comedian from Krivoy Rog, and now one of the countless “Servants”. The recording of the conversation was also made public by the “servant” – the now disgraced and expelled from the faction Chernigov people’s deputy Anton Polyakov.

“While the women are gone, can I show you what kind of deputy minister we have. Klitina Sasha. She asked, she really wanted it.

- Good?

- Wow! Fucking awesome!

- So, they appointed me, the girl really wanted to become a deputy minister!

[laugh]

- It’s called, I’m pure in front of you

“Damn, of course, nooo, good friend.”

Interestingly, after the recordings were made public, the heroine of this story became the victim of another scam - this time by a mysterious prankster named “Joker”.

Judging by the screenshots of the conversation with “Joker” posted on Telegram, Klitina denies her appointment through bed: “I have nothing to do with it at all,” immediately voicing the recommendations of the party’s press center not to comment on the scandal. The interlocutor quickly asks her to write a post about her love for her family, which she quickly does, having received from “Joker” the ironic characteristic “Obedient” in retrospect.

In addition, Klitina asks to convey to Zelensky “that this is the delirium of crazy people”: “I have been working in the ministry for 5 years, I earned my position through hard work.”

But this is not much more interesting. In the end, if the advertised LIFT is broken, then it’s possible through bed, which makes us worse than Hollywood stars. What is much more indicative is the speed and ease with which the person involved in the scandal handed over all the “dirty laundry” of her boss, Minister Krikliy, to her telephone interlocutor. He also “muddies the waters with tenders.” And he “brought closer to himself” a certain Galushchak, “on whom there is nowhere to put a stamp” and who “was plundering the Chinese express under Yanyk.”

The icing on the cake was the idea that her boss was “only interested in making money”, that he “frankly can’t handle it and can’t cope”, and she herself would not mind heading some kind of ministry, including transport - the one in which she now works. “Joker” only had to please the ambitions of the young official a little. As they say, “a boastful man does not need a knife. Sing to him a little and do whatever you want with him.” As a result, having received an invitation from an anonymous person to a meeting with Zelensky to discuss her appointment as minister (!), the official even sends her own resume to the pseudo-president and assures her of her readiness to meet with Zelensky as soon as she arrives from the Netherlands. True, the deputy minister is still gnawing at some remnants of her conscience: “It’s somehow not very nice to dump your boss,” she writes to “Joker.”

This is such crap, little ones, as the legendary actor who played Ded Panas from the Soviet television program “Na dobranich, diti” once said on camera during the recording of one of his last programs.

I don’t know about you, but it seems to me that this is all you need to know about Zelensky’s famous LIFT. In general, send your resume and become part of the team. Hurry before LIFT activates self-destruct mode.
