Did you just want to overlook the fact that several top officials in the Zelensky government were themselves found to be totally corrupt?

The study in contrasts was in how Ukraine is dealing. With its corruption, and how we and the Russians deal with theirs.

Had you actually read the portion of the article I quoted, you would know:

1. The corruption in Ukraine, a carry over from its Soviet days, is being exposed and addressed by the government itself.

2. The corruption of Russia is long standing and the Trump administration is emulating it. And the corruption of both Russia and the United States was on full display in the agreement arrived at by Jared, Witkoff and Kiriil Dmitriev.

The difference between the countries- Ukraine is building a robust democracy with safeguards to identify and address corruption, while the United States is busy destroying the mechanisms that heretofore identified and addressed corruption. And we will increasingly pay a high price for that corruption.
