It is interesting that some recent headlines -- all, of course, will be deemed AGITPROP in capital letters -- are seen recently.

Links for ease of review, since I tend to avoid simple assertion.

Corruption accusations continue to plague top Zelenskiy aides Reuters, 19 September 2023

How much progress has Ukraine's government made against corruption? NPR, 10 October 2023

'Ukrainians understand corruption can kill': Kyiv takes on an old enemy Guardian UK, 19 September 2023

Leaked U.S. strategy on Ukraine sees corruption as the real threat Politico EU, 19 September 2023

Ukraine uncovers corruption scheme implicating top officials Politico EU, 25 August 2023

Is Ukraine really interested in fighting corruption? Economist, 4 September 2023

These daily amen™ threads -- the About page which used to read from about 10 October and before: "I post 2 summation daily events articles: 'Update from Ukraine'-Denys Davydov & 'Reporting from Ukraine'," and then was changed recently -- involve lots of "squirrel! Look over there."

Well, look at the above "implicating top officials" articles appearing now in mainstream headlines.

Interesting that these appear now, in the same time that the Lyiv Post article from January is being further shared, that the headliner for these threads is in "an undisclosed safe country in Europe."

So all this YouTube coverage about the war is "content" created for money. And, of course, Ukraine is for sale:

"The whole Ukraine goes for sale - massive profit opportunities being created by the war." Modern Diplomacy (EU). Another of their articles is also informative:

The real issue is not about Ukraine – it is NATO and Russia

And the Ukraine war is in part also for sale. Click. Donate.

Worldtraveler once upon a time: "Well, look at the above "implicating top officials" articles appearing now in mainstream headlines."

By all accounts, Vlad the Invader's Russian government is built on a culture of corruption, at a level of corruption many a third world country would blush over.

Ukraine's corruption is also a serious matter, in wartime corruption is an issue of life, death and treason.
The difference between Russia and Ukraine is that Ukrainians are publicly working to expose and eliminate corruption, whereas in Vlad's Russia, corruption continues as usual, regardless even of its effects on Vlad's Invasion of Ukraine.
