October 28, 2019. After several months in office, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy arrived at NABU to address detectives:
“The main question, why I came to you with my colleagues, is to charge you with this energy, so that you understand: we will not and do not want to influence you, but we really want, as people who represent society, I, as the elected president, really want you to know that your hands are not tied. Please, we really want all top corrupt officials to really receive deserved sentences. Because society will never forgive us for this.”
False narrative. Zelensky wants to fight corruption, but the way he wanted to take control of it, was not accepted. So instead he accepted the voice of the people, and took a step back.
Because there is close to zero people that are loyal to Ze and Yermak is the one that was attacked by NABU (and Yermak is his most loyal and most influential man). Not that organisation itself isn’t corrupt (they do part of finding corruption, true, they just keep this information for later use).
Also after not vetoing it (which was regarded after public backlash) Zelensky now tries to roll it back, one of the stupidest move by him I’ve seen to this day.
