This is a nightmare for Washington.

At the worst possible time.


Zelenskiy ramps up anti-corruption drive as 15 Ukrainian officials exit


"Fifteen senior officials have left their posts since Saturday, six of whom have had corruption allegations levelled at them by journalists and Ukraine’s anti-corruption authorities."


"Since Zelenskiy’s address, a further four senior officials implicated in separate corruption scandals have been dismissed or resigned."

(That was only two days ago.)

"They include Vyacheslav Shapovalov, the deputy minister of defence, under whose watch alleged inflated food contracts were said to be signed. He has not admitted to any wrongdoing. Kyrylo Tymoshenko, the deputy head of Ukraine’s presidential administration, who was recorded by journalists driving a car belonging to prominent Ukrainian businessmen, has also denied any wrongdoing. Pavlo Halimon, the deputy head of Zelenskiy’s political party, has not commented on recent evidence presented by journalists that he bought a house in Kyiv above his means.

Also dismissed was Oleksiy Symonenko, the deputy prosecutor general of Ukraine, who went on holiday to Spain in late December in a Mercedes owned by a prominent Ukrainian businessman.


We are not going to support this forever.

We never do.

And somebody knew that from the start.
