"Ukraine sinks into a swamp of corruption – and the West tries to present it as something good. The Kiev establishment burns in the mob scandal Energoatom, while the media and think tank insist that it's okay."

In Ukraine, the front line is wobbly, as is the Zelenski regime. While Kupansk and Pokrowsk are falling, the impact wave of the Energiatom mafia scandal continues to echo internationally and in Kiev.


At this point, 2 ministers resigned.

erstwhile Minister of Defence and Head of the powerful National safety Council, Rustem Umerov, is fundamentally at large.

According to usually well-informed writer Anatoly Sharija, Umerov offers the FBI in the United States the chance to give—protected— testimony.

He may yet return to Ukraine, but even his current behaviour – unplanned delays, seeking allies in the US, possibly in order to make an agreement – reveals strong remorse.


Similarly, Prime Minister Julia Swiridenko declared her willingness to cooperate with Ukrainian anti-corruption prosecutors in NABU, which is in fact an FBI branch operating in Ukraine.

Apparently Swiridenka is besides looking for a settlement, indicating that she is willing to talk and give names, provided that it allows her to get distant with the absurd claim that she knew everything but was not involved.


Zelenski's closest companion, the chief consigliere, the autocratic executioner and the bossy grey eminence, Andrei Jermak, is besides profoundly – and, no wonder – entangled, under gangster slang “Ali Baba’, in the mob scandal of the Energoats, and his head is clearly on the political cutting list.


Details could be multiplied to boredom.

Take, for example, the fact that we now know that a gangster nickname ‘Professor’ did not mention to erstwhile Minister of Justice German Galushchenko (but has nothing to worry about:

He is inactive an Energoatom gangster, only not this) but to the wife of erstwhile Deputy Prime Minister Alexey Chernyszov, Svetlana.

While her husband performs as ‘Czech Guevara’ in the case of Energoatom, ‘professor’ Svetlana – in real life (or pretending?) lecturer at the prestigious Kiev University Taras Shevchenko – is simply a very close friend of Jelena Zelenska.

Yes, it is Vladimir Zelenski's husband (when his busy agenda with Jermak leaves her time).

According to Sharija, Svetlana, Jelena's friend, is active in suspicious arrangements around the Kiev elites that build palaces and besides received $500,000 (in cash) from ‘Cucurman’, Alexander Cukerman, another key player of the Energoatom, who is at large.


In short, if they think they have a swamp in Washington, they haven't seen Kiev yet.

But of course they did.

It is clear that Washington is well aware of how shocking, even disgustingly corrupt its customers in Ukraine are.

In fact, the more, the better, the contemporary Machiavelli would say, due to the fact that it makes them even more dependent.

One of the best explanations for the outbreak of the Energoatom scandal is that it is part of a U.S. operation to get free of or subdue Zelenski.

The striking fact that Zelenski abruptly started – unjustly – talking about interest in peace talks may have as much to do with the American attack on him as with the disaster on the front line.


This context besides explains the fresh trend in western manipulation of Ukraine. Ridiculous, but the claim that the mess with the Energoatom is simply a good sign, if you just take a good look, spreads as requested.

The logic behind it is not only stupid but besides simple.

Take, for example, the fresh example of this species:

According to Polish TVP, quoting the U.S. Centre for European Policy Analysis (CEPA), the case of Energoatom “it harms Ukraine, but proves that it is on track”, due to the fact that “the issue of this scale revealed by national institutions is evidence of the effectiveness of the Ukrainian anti-corruption system”.


Where do I start?

So let's origin this one:

‘Case’ – As in 1 case, it only proves that we are facing a lot more.

In Ukraine, there is simply a common belief that what happened in the Energoatom is nothing compared to what is happening in the defence sector, inflated virtually hundreds of billions of euros and dollars from the West.

That's why erstwhile defence minister Umerov is terrified.

The first evidence of his individual engagement in corruption is already appearing.

Energoatom is just a crack in the dam

. erstwhile the dam breaks, the strategy cracks with it, the full system.

National institutions?

It's truly funny.

The only reason why NABU and SAPO – Ukrainian anti-corruption agencies – inactive be is due to the fact that they are not national.

In fact, for those who do not believe in Santa Claus, they are implants of the USA – in the case of NABU it is rather obvious. They survived Zelenski's effort to destruct them this summertime only with the support of the West.


‘Providence’?

The only proof that corruption in Ukraine under Zelenski's regulation suffered a real defeat would be the collapse of this regime.

But even then – and this is what naive Western people simply cannot realize in the context of the Ukrainian political strategy – corruption itself would not stop, but only change in management.

How do we know?

due to the fact that this rule of Kiev politics has been tested many times.

The last time, by the way, in 2014, erstwhile then president Viktor Yanukovych was removed from power in a government change operation, facilitated by his gross corruption and nepotism.

And yet here we are again.


Additional irony is the fact that Poland uses American think tank to spread absurd information about hypercorruption in Ukraine:

According to the entry of the X erstwhile Polish Prime Minister Leszek Miller, Polish authorities could aid 1 of the worst mob leaders Energoatom, Timur Mindich – called ‘President's wallet’, or Zelenski – avoid arrest. This is entirely likely:

In Ukraine, Mindich received a clear informing about the impending arrest, most likely from Jermak or Zelenski himself.

Whoever warned him must have besides had the essential Polish connections. And Warsaw, of course, has a past of lewd cooperation with Ukrainian criminals and hiding them from prosecution.

Just ask the Germans how far they went in their investigations into Nord Stream.


Ukrainians drown in a deep, stinking swamp of corruption, worse than ever.

Pretending that a scandal coming out of this swamp is simply a good sign is perverse.

But the same is actual of most Western politics towards Ukraine, which uses its inhabitants in a war provoked for idiotic reasons and long-lost.

Perhaps there is any dark historical justice in Ukraine and the West, which further deepens their culture of cynicism and corruption.
