The National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) said Monday it had uncovered a graft scheme in the energy sector involving $100 million of laundered funds.
Ukrainian investigators on Tuesday accused Timur Mindich, a close ally and longtime business associate of President Volodymyr Zelensky.
Zelensky faced a massive backlash from Ukrainians and Brussels over the summer when he tried to bring the two independent anti-corruption bodies, NABU and SAPO, under government control.

The army’s patience won’t last forever, and honestly, it’s starting to look like the patriotic military might end up running the country…Â

For all the European nationals reading this, I urge you to think of the fact that you in actuality do enable this.
How come it is valid to buy stuff in Switzerland with stolen money? This is exactly what these pieces of shit did.
How come everyone corrupt is allowed in EU and as soon as you cross the Hungarian border all law you broke magically doesn’t matter? (And btw yes, this does include draft dodging as well as corruption . Arbitrary line crossing should not provide safe haven from charges)
And we see all of that, and then we see the preaching on oh how corrupt y’all are. Do you think this makes us feel inspired to root these pieces of shit out? It does feel like we stand alone at times, with everyone else just providing platitudes most of the time.
And do you think this is limited to UA corruption btw? Don’t you understand that your domestic grafters use the same infrastructure ours do? So even if you’re selfish, this should concern you.

>Zelenskyy lauded the anti-corruption efforts saying that “all and any steps against corruption are very necessary.”
Everyone knows that Ukraine is near the top of every corruption index. The noteworthy thing isn’t the corruption, it’s the fact that in the middle of the largest war in Europe since ww2, an independent agency has enough power and popular support to fight the government and do its job properly.

At this point, I just hope that this story will be the end of Zelensky’s political career.
Somehow, we have to keep going and survive this war. But afterwards, this man has to go.

How come France [refuses](https://chamber.ua/news/france-has-refused-to-extradite-kostyantin-zhevago-reports-law-firm-vb-partners/) to extradite Zhevago who is as corrupt as they come? Do you want his illegal money, I assume? Don’t give me that “war means he will be mistreated” bullshit, what are our options here, not to have war before we can put him in jail?

>In his [**daily address**](https://www.president.gov.ua/news/mi-gotuyemo-ugodi-z-kilkoma-yevropejskimi-krayinami-v-tomu-c-101273) on November 10, Zelenskyy said Energoatom, the largest energy provider in Ukraine, is of such importance that it is “necessary to have the company clean.” “Sentences must be handed down” he added.
