Ukraine's Zelenskyy Fires Top Security Chief and Prosecutor
Newsmax ^ | July 17, 2022

As Russia's military pressed its efforts to expand into Ukraine's east, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy fired the head of the country's security service and its prosecutor general on Sunday, citing hundreds of criminal proceedings into treason and collaboration by people within their departments.

"In particular, more than 60 employees of the prosecutor's office and the SBU have remained in the occupied territory and work against our state," Zelenskyy said.

...

He also dismissed Ivan Bakanov, a childhood friend and former business partner who headed Ukraine's security service, the SBU. Bakanov had come under growing criticism recently over security breaches; Politico cited several unidentified Ukrainian and Western sources last month saying Zelenskyy was looking to replace him.

This happened just after that disastrous - and enigmatic - crash of an airplane in Greece, with a Ukrainian crew. It is said to have been carrying weapons from Serbia to Bangladesh, but many doubt that story.

The press tried to ridicule the new Ukrainian republican congresswoman from Indiana.
But it seems she actually knew something, and they are investigating

Zelensky has fired Iryna Venediktova - the Prosecutor General - and Ivan Bakanov, head of the powerful SBU, or State Security Service. Zelensky said as many as 60 officials within both of those departments were suspected of treason.

Well maybe they just want the conflict to be settled?

Ivan Bakanov, head of the SBU was supposedly to ‘reform’ the Dept. Looks like he did but not to Zelenskys liking. I suspect Ivan was one of Bidens picks...and seems Zelensky isn’t exactly agreeing with Nato Bidens plans for Ukraine as once was.

Iryna Venediktova

Yikes! She's got a face that could freeze lava. Any relation to Lil' Kim's Nork sister?

Kind of ironic that this is occurring just a day after reports began circulating that a US HIMARs had either been captured by the Russians or a corrupt Ukrainian officer sold a HIMARs to the Russians.....

I wonder, Did Hitler, Joe and Zelensky use the same designer for their Bunkers?

They certainly used the same designer for their Ethics, Morals and Governing Policies.

This began after that plane carrying weaponry crashed in Greece. It was manned by Ukrainians.

I would speculate that crash was no accident. At the same time Ind Congress woman Victoria Spartz (born in Ukraine) started speaking out against Zelensky.

Much of this continued culling of Ukrainians by US proxy war with Russia must be to cover up and continue the corruption of all the world wide bad actors operating out of Ukraine.

Two such bad actors would be you and your degenerate son Joe Biden.

Just
