War

Zelensky fires defense ministry because of corruption. Experts say this has been going on for sometime. When billions of dollars are sent it is no surprise to many that some of these billions get into the wrong hands. This system should be run by people who know exactly what war is and why cynicism and bribery at a time of war is high treason, Zelensky wrote on social media. What kind of signal is Zelensky sending when the punishment for high treason is getting fired. This country had a reputation of corruption before the billions from the US started pouring in. For those who were not around and/or for those who have forgotten here is a quote from the Vietnam days. The United States consistently identified corruption—defined here as efforts of government officials to enrich themselves or close associates using public funds—as one of the most pervasive problems within the South Vietnamese government. Will this be a wake up call for US officials.
