New York Times: Zelenskyy Cleans House in Corruption-Plagued Defense Ministry
KYIV, Ukraine — Two weeks after replacing its defense minister, Ukraine dismissed all six of its deputy ministers Monday, deepening the housecleaning at a ministry that had drawn criticism for corruption in procurement as the military budget ballooned during the war.
The shake-up in President ’s wartime leadership team came as he headed to the United States, keen to demonstrate to U.S. officials and other Western leaders that his government is not squandering — on either graft or mismanagement — the tens of billions of dollars in aid they have sent to Ukraine.

“Corruption plagued”. So here you go Ukraine, take another 45 billion from us suckers here in the west. Seriously, how is it this is happening? 🤔
It's a good thing when generals are fired, by the way. Russia has done it's fair share of it. God knows we fired more than a dozen during WW2. It's when they're allowed to fail-in-place perpetually that you've got a problem.
To prevent good men from rising up
Obama purged in order to install tame, woke generals and matinets.

Ukraine’s economy in 'catastrophic state': Former PM
According to the former Ukrainian Prime Minister Nikolay Azarov, Ukraine has no money to pay its own military due to its 'zombie' economy that is dependent on Western funds.
According to Mykola Azarov, the former Ukrainian Prime Minister, Ukraine's economy is a "zombie" that only has one lifeline: Western financing.
The former PM wrote on Telegram on Monday that the economy was "falling apart,"
Azarov argued that Ukraine's national economy is “falling apart,” with Ukraine facing little GDP growth and a potential devaluation of the hryvna "under pressure from the International Monetary Fund."
Meanwhile, despite Western help, state debt is rising, and the fiscal deficit is growing, according to Azarov.
“The best illustration of the catastrophic state of affairs is that the budget of the country at war lacks more than $6 billion to pay the Ukrainian military alone,” Azarov remarked.
Azarov alleged that despite Kiev's pledges, the families of Polish mercenaries slain during the fighting had not received any compensation.
