Ukraine's Anti-Corruption Drama

[dms1972]

Synopsis

Andrii Biletskyi, a Ukrainian lawyer specialising in anti-corruption, discusses a recent outbreak of internal political struggle in Ukraine. In the middle of an existential conflict with Russia, President Zelenskyy’s attempt to weaken its anti-corruption bodies triggered mass protests from civil society, forcing it to climb down. He argues that Ukraine’s ability to resist external aggression is inseparable from its ability to build institutions that are resilient to internal power grabs.

We gotta keep praying for the Ukrainians.
Hopefully, they will all turn from sin, and be welcomed into the brotherhood of Christianity.

Yes indeed. Its a difficult state of affairs. Its good that there is concern about political and economic corruption and a desire to see that tackled.

On the other hand, we had better be sure our own government isn't "calling the kettle black" !
