Why was it 11 months for Volodymyr Zelensky to address the corruption problem? For many months, there have been warning signs about the corruption issue.
Ukrainian-born Rep. Victoria Spartz, R-Ind., who at the beginning of the invasion was very supportive of Ukraine, more recently began to question Zelensky’s administration. Spartz wanted greater oversight over American aid to Ukraine. This was widely criticized by many. both parties.
With the recent resignation of several officials, there are grounds to question the location of the funds in Ukraine. Despite the fact that the European Union has a similar GDP and 100 millions more people, the United States has been the biggest supporter of military assistance to Ukraine. Military equipment is the most important aid to keeping Ukraine’s military armed and fighting, which might be why Zelensky is trying to address corruption now.
