    Officials taking cash and cryptocurrency bribes or helping people eligible to be called up to fight to leave Ukraine are among the charges, said Mr Zelensky, in a video posted on social media.

    wtf I support military corruption now. These are probably the Ukrainian officials who have saved the most Ukrainian lives, and they’re getting the treatment of Germans who helped Nazi targets flee from Germany. What an odd coincidence.

    Fuck off with your pro Russian headline which doesn’t match the article.

    Ukraine has a responsibility to make sure US and foreign support isn’t wasted and they’re doing just that.

      Human garbage such as yourself is precisely the reason this war is still ongoing and hundreds of thousands of people are dead. If you want Russians to die so bad then go sign up for the foreign legion and fight yourself instead of shitposting here you deplorable piece shit.

        I don’t think the person you’re replying to is responsible for hundreds of thousands of people dying my man. Calm down. If you’re angry at all the unnecessary deaths, point your energy at Putin.

          Every single person who supports continuation of this war is responsible for the people dying in this war. Meanwhile, pointing your energy at Putin while living in the west is idiotic because you have zero influence on Putin. What you have influence on is your own deplorable regime that’s fueling the continuation of this war.

            The war continues because Russia remains in Ukraine. All Russia has to do is withdraw from Ukraine and needless death of both sides ends.

            My “deplorable regime” is helping Ukraine from defending itself from aggressors that’s trying to take control of the country, that the Ukrainian people clearly don’t want. The Ukrainians don’t want to continue this war. They’d love it to stop right now. But they can’t because Russia remains in their country. And don’t forget which country constantly launches rocket attacks against civilians since day 1 of this war. Literally the first day, Russian troops have opened fire on civilians, with orders to kill everyone.

            If you think Ukraine should give up fighting to stop any deaths is insane as all Russia has to do is then continue its march into Ukraine. Why would Russia stop if Ukraine doesn’t resist? The entire world would be chaos if nobody defended their homeland, all it would take is a single aggressor to start a war and nobody would stop them.

            Imagine if Britain, Russia and the US had surrendered to nazi Germany and Japan to prevent deaths in their respective cities. That’s basically your argument.

            I wonder what your motivation for supporting Russia is in this. Are you a paid Russian troll? Or just attention starved in the real world so you need to have a contrary opinion to get any kind of attention?

            Edit: it’s also kind of suspicious that any time a user from two specific instances they get upvoted multiple times almost instantly.

              People in Donbas will certainly keep being killed if Russia withdraws

      I think it’s pretty obvious? Article is an example (not the first and certainly not the last) of western media making a cracks in their narrative - it is illustration of the the headline.

        So you think until this point the western media narrative has been: “Ukraine is the only former USSR member that has no corruption.”? Seems pretty wild to me I don’t know

          Yes actually, since the beginning of the war up till very recently they could fart and western media smell roses, and anyone who expressed some doubts or remind them of the previous narration (before 2022 western media were correctly calling Ukraine the most corrupted country in Europe which furthermore have huge nazi problem) were called “shills, propagandists, and putinbots”. And when UA ultimately lose the war, western media will start to bash them again, most likely even harsher than before.

          Hell if you go and see comments to this and few similar articles in let’s say reddit worldnews sub, you will still find tons of people calling even the very same journos putin shills for publishing this.
