The NY Times, and your, take on "corruption in Ukraine" is absolutely delusional.
So, corruption has been going on with Zelensky's top advisers for YEARS during an existential war with Russia, and Zelensky either didn't notice or didn't care or was and is part of it.
But that's not "Ukrainian Corruption," oh no, it's "Corruption is Russia."
That's the psyops.
What the article purports to be about is how good Ukraine is supposedly fighting its own corruption.
But it doesn't come to the conclusion that "UKRAINE IS VERY CORRUPT."
It comes to the conclusion that "UKRAINE IS NOT CORRUPT, RUSSIA IS CORRUPT."
W.T.F.
Oh and you say Ukraine is a "democracy"? They haven't had a national election for SIX YEARS.
That's not a "democracy." That's a dictatorship. Period.
It may be a dictatorship that we the U.S. for various reasons greatly prefer to the Russian variety; it may be a dictatorship that we don't think is anywhere near as dangerous as the Russian one; but make no mistake--it's a dictatorship.
Not a democracy.
