The 35-year-old native of Kyiv became Ukraine’s internationally recognized symbol in the war against Russia as the public learned of the nefarious nature of her cap- ture by Donbas terrorists who surrendered her to Russian officials, the torture she endured in prison, her repeated hunger strikes that brought her to the brink of death and the rigged criminal trial that exposed the extreme corruption of Russian courts. Upon arriving at Boryspil International Airport near the capital, she was greeted by her mother, Maria, and sister, Vira, offered a few remarks before journalists, before heading to the Presidential Administration, Mikhail Palinchak/UNIAN where she was presented with the highest Nadiya Savchenko is mobbed by the news media upon her arrival at Boryspil International Airport in Kyiv on May 25. state honor, the Golden Star of the Hero of Ukraine award, for her unbreakable will, faith in our victory,” said Ukrainian with Ms. Savchenko at his side.

The article also examines the role of memes in society. The research material inclu- des creolized memes (including both verbal and visual elements) about the Ukrainian politicians Petro Poroshenko and Volodymyr Zelenskyi. These memes were created in 2019 during the Ukrai- nian presidential election. The article firstly focuses on the verbal aspects of the memes and their semantic and functional features. In addition, the peculiarities of opponent image construction are analysed. The article then examines the influence of Ukrainian politicians on the conduct of the “meme war”. The article also sheds light on the role which memes play in the polarization of society. Keywords: political meme; creolized meme; polarization of society; elections; image of opponent; politics in Ukraine 1 Introduction A peculiarity of political internet memes frequently lies in the fact that they not only reflect ideas, but also demonstrate a certain attitude towards a political event, political power in general, or a specific political leader.
