Corruption investigations have begun surrounding Zelensky.
Something is shifting in Ukraine, and the anti-corruption agencies appear to have been unleashed upon the Kiev regime rampant graft and kickbacks.
Last Sunday (9), Russian state media RT reported:
“From ‘hero’ to ZERO
‘Someone has been given the order to destroy the reputation of [Volodymyr] Zelensky, in place of a new ambitious leader’ — Russian intelligence tells RIA Novosti.
The report noted the recent ‘meat grinder’ story release as ‘far from a coincidence’”.
The meat grinder story mentioned above is a 2013 interview with Zelensky’s mother Rimma Zelenskaya that has resurfaced.
Eurasia Daily reported:
“Vova [Volodymyr] grew up there, in Yugok (a remote area of Krivoy Rog) and went to kindergarten. And he was drawn to kindergarten terribly! I was the center of attention there, gathered everyone around me, invented games. And when I returned from kindergarten, I loved playing most of all… with a meat grinder — that old Soviet one! — the mother of the head of the Kiev regime was touched.”
The Russian intel statement that ‘an order was given’ to destroy Zelensky’s reputation appears indeed to be accurate, since in two days, two different stories have broken in the Ukrainian press dealing with corruption investigations targeting people closely linked to the regime leader.
A day after it arose that Zelensky’s business partner Timur Mindich fled Ukraine to evade arrest on corruption charges, another explosive story breaks today:
NBC News reported:
“Ukraine’s justice minister was suspended Wednesday in an investigation into a $100 million kickback scandal in the country’s energy sector that has fueled public anger and reached the heart of the country’s wartime leadership.
German Galushchenko was removed from office one day after anti-corruption authorities said they exposed a scheme that allegedly involves a close associate of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and an ex-deputy prime minister nicknamed ‘Che Guevara’.”

“The probe threatened a high-profile confrontation over the long-running issue of graft in Ukraine as it battles to maintain Western support for its fight against Russia, which has battered its neighbor’s energy infrastructure with waves of attacks.
Five people have been arrested and another seven were placed under suspicion, according to a statement Tuesday from Ukraine’s National Anticorruption Bureau, the NABU, and Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office, SAPO.
The ‘high-level criminal organization’ saw current and former officials, and businesspeople, allegedly receive benefits and launder money through the country’s state energy company, Energoatom, authorities said.”

UPDATE: Zelensky ‘supports the resignation’ of ministers involved in Mindich’s corruption scheme:
“I believe that the Minister of Justice and the Minister of Energy cannot remain in their positions. This is also a matter of trust. If there are accusations, they must be answered. The decision to remove from office is operational and the fastest. I asked the Prime Minister of Ukraine to request resignation statements from these ministers. I ask the deputies of the Verkhovna Rada to support these statements. And further, everything should be resolved in the legal sphere.”
