  2. I can’t wait for the corruption task force that will be dependent on corrupt politicians to bring about real change.

  3. I must admit this is a world class screw up by Zelensky, He’s managed to lose a huge amount of public goodwill both nationally and internationally in a matter of moments.

    There does seem to be a problem with the anti-corruption unit but it should have been addressed by reorganization and regulation rather than destruction

  4. The anti corruption plan should have been planned then executed with passage of this bill, not 2 weeks after its passage.

  5. 2 weeks is more than enough to get rid of the investigations they didn’t like

  7. I love all the thumbing of noses over this. Oh the humanity, meanwhile might we not look in the mirror? Even if its a power consolidating dictatorial move – I am firmly in the camp that the ends justify the means when it comes to Ukraine.

  8. While I know this looks bad let’s all wait to see what he does. Zelensky seems like a good man that cares for the best interests of his people. Let’s hope we’re not mistaken
