The Ukrainian Mriya An-225 aircraft on the morning of April 23 delivered a large humanitarian cargo from China to the Antonov airport in Gostomel.
This was reported by the press service of the President of Ukraine, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
The cargo is intended to combat the coronavirus epidemic. The loading of the Mriya on this voyage was 102 tons and 1200 cubic meters.
At the airport, the plane was solemnly greeted by Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky and his delegation, which was immediately ridiculed on the Internet.
Thus, Verkhovna Rada deputy Anton Polyakov published a video of the An-225 meeting with superimposed music from the famous film “Brigade” in his Telegram channel.
In turn, in the anonymous Telegram channel they marveled at the pathos of the meeting organized by the Ukrainian president.
“Photo of the day: Zelensky and members of the National Security and Defense Council meet the Mriya plane with cargo from China. But why is it so pretentious?” they wrote on the social network.
Let us recall that previously Ukrainian political scientist Yuri Romanenko said, that the world’s largest transport aircraft “Mriya”, which Ukrainian propaganda likes to present as one of the scientific achievements of an independent Ukrainian state, is the brainchild of the disappeared more developed empire of the USSR, and modern Ukraine has nothing to do with the aircraft.
