billions have dissappeared so this army psychiatrist must be one of the small fish that they feel they can sacrafice.

or worse yet: they did it fbi style and manufactured the criminal so that they can arrest him.

either way, it's having a serious impact on ukraine's ability to fight.

They nabbed him partially because it can be hailed as great success againt the corruption, but in reality it's just tip of the tip of the tip of entire iceberg, but the real reason was that what could psychiatrist even take the bribes for? Of course for excluding people from draft, which is a big no-no now.

In the comments section of an article about the war last week, I wrote that Ukraine was the most corrupt country in Europe. I included the link to transparency.org with the data.

The bbc removed the comment. And upheld the section on appeal.

the western narrative on ukraine is just as strong as it is with isreal, so you probably shouldn't expect to break through anytime soon.

I know you've all been fed a lot of pro Ukrainian propaganda over the past few years but to think they're not a bunch of shifty cunts is naïve beyond belief 😂

They've always been dodgy as fuck, even Ukrainians will admit that lol
