"Do not become a target of Russian pranksters. The other day, Russian pranksters (it is difficult to describe them as "secret services") started writing to me under the name of my friend and friend of Ukraine Tomasz Grodzki, the Marshal of the Senate of Poland.

Thank God, I have personal contacts and the opportunity to communicate with the leaders of many countries. Therefore, together with Tomasz Grodzki, we just smiled at the attempts of 'narrow-minded' pranksters to impersonate European politicians."

Details: Stefanchuk stressed that both Ukrainian and European politicians knew the format of his communication and his stance regarding the main events and decisions of Ukraine.

In his opinion, pranking is a method of pathetic Russian propaganda: "Here they [Russians – ed.] are poor clumsies, as in everything else".

Background: Earlier, Russian pranksters claimed that they had allegedly spoken with Moldovan President Maia Sandu, posing themselves as Denys Shmyhal, the Prime Minister of Ukraine.
