Ukrainian investigators say that a criminal organization led by a business partner of Mr. Zelensky siphoned off and then laundered $100 million from the country’s publicly owned nuclear power company and engaged in other fraud and financial crimes.

But the revelations touch a particular political vulnerability for Mr. Zelensky. This summer, he moved to curtail the independence of the anticorruption investigators as they pursued the case.

The revelations are a remarkable reversal for Mr. Zelensky. He had once cultivated an image as a leader who would open up Ukraine’s politics by sweeping away the wealthy insiders known as oligarchs. Now, nearly seven years since the last election, and with a new one nowhere in sight because of the war, many Ukrainians see him as operating within a small, closed circle, unbound by the rules.

Obviously this is not good and corruption needs to be investigated and stopped, but one had to wonder who is trying so hard to discredit Zelenskyy now besides the russians. I have my suspicions, that Trumps CIA is involved in this campaign as well?!

One has to wonder why OP has posted almost 2k posts in 4 months. All either posting only positive news for China, or negative for Western democracies.
