Ukainian corruption is the talk of the town – in every town.
Zelensky’s men are all implicated in corruption in the energy sector, right at the time when Russian strikes have left the country in the dark and in the cold.
And while the MSM runs interference in his behalf, in Ukraine the outrage is growing fast.
Anti-corruption bodies – those that Zelensky tried to defang – accused several people of involvement in an energy sector kickback scheme worth about $100 million.
Eight people have been charged with bribery, abuse of office, and illicit enrichment.
Those facing charges include former deputy prime minister Oleksiy Chernyshov and Zelensky’s business partner Timur Mindich – both of whom have fled the country and escaped detention.
Also implicated is Rustem Umerov, the former defense minister and current Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council.
Newsweek published an article called: ‘Could Zelensky Be Toppled by Corruption Investigation?’, dedicated to stating that the Kiev regime leader will indeed survive.
“Orysia Lutsevych, head of the Ukraine Forum at the Chatham House think tank in London told Newsweek on Thursday the scandal shows that Zelensky’s electoral pledge to eliminate corruption and change the system has failed but he was likely to survive politically.
Ukrainian analyst Viktor Kovalenko, told Newsweek he did not think this scandal will sink Zelensky or lead to his resignation, impeachment, or removal from the post but it was ‘upsetting news for Ukrainian society and Western allies’.”
But in Ukraine, perhaps many would beg to differ.
Ihor Kolomoisky, once a prominent figure in Ukraine’s financial sector and Zelensky’s financier, is one of them.
Kolomoisky has been arrested over money-laundering and fraud allegations, with allegations including transferring $13.5 million abroad before the war started.
And now, he has a few words about his former protégé.
“I know Timur Mindich. It is not established to independently organize management processes for the implementation of folding corruption schemes, which are used by NABU at once.
Timur Mindich is not a friend and business partner of Volodymyr Zelensky, in the world of the world. Mindich’s schemes are Zelensky’s schemes.
I call on Volodymyr Zelensky to declare the folding of the President of Ukraine and the transfer of the head to the parliament before the elections.
Zelensky does not need to delay his delivery until the hour when Europe is ready to finance the military and defense programs of Ukraine. Europeans will not finance us, knowing how Zelensky and Yermak steal pennies of European taxpayers with wagons of euros and dollars through the schemes of the Ministry and another Zelensky account.”
