On November 10, the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) exposed an alleged $110 million corruption scheme at state-owned nuclear company Energoatom. The charges are supported by a fifteen-month wiretap and over seventy searches carried out as part of a major investigation called Operation Midas.
According to NABU officials, the investigation uncovered a criminal enterprise run by Timur Mindich, a film producer and a former business partner of Zelenskyy. Additional suspects include former Minister of Energy and recently appointed Minister of Justice Herman Halushchenko; former Naftogaz CEO and Deputy Prime Minister Oleksii Chernyshov; former Minister of Defense and current National Security and Defense Council member Rustem Umerov; and Ihor Myroniuk, former deputy head of the State Property Fund and former advisor to Halushchenko.
Mindich fled Ukraine the day before his premises were raided and is reportedly now in Israel.
No it really just seems like an attempt to discredit Zelenskyy with our billion dollar propaganda machine at the same time that the USA is being run by a Russian agent but I’m sure that’s just a coincidence.
this shit reminds me of medieval serfs who would swear that the new, bad king is a puppet of the rival dynasty or the Pope or whatever. This Russian puppet thing was a masterstroke of propaganda, because it gave liberals, who were already American exceptionalists, the perfect excuse to substitute xenophobia for an actual critique of capitalism. Could Trump be a result of and manifestation of a rancid homegrown ideology that arose from the contradictions between the classes? No, he’s being controlled by the bad foreigners. Hell, I bet Hitler was a puppet of Rasputin, and the third reich was all just a Russian plot to weaken Germany .
Yes if we remove all evidence from the last ten years your theory seems plausible. Did Rasputin have a photo of Hitler blowing a horse? Did a troll farm out of Russia help get Hitler elected? Are you a bot? You can’t be serious. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Links_between_Trump_associates_and_Russian_officials

Everyone who does not believe my simple nationalist conspiracy answer to the incredibly broad questions of class antagonism and capitalist social decay is simply not a real person: a soothing fairy tale for nascent fascists-in-training.
