BORNA News – Nov 15, 2025
On Monday, Ukraine’s anti-corruption agencies announced that they had uncovered a $100 million kickback scheme in energy sector contracts involving Zelensky’s close associate and former business partner Timur Mindich, who was tipped off and fled the country, evading arrest. The affair has raised concerns among Kiev’s Western backers, who heavily subsidize the country’s power grid and its protection against Russian airstrikes.
Politico cited an EU official as saying that “the endemic corruption” in Ukraine is “revolting” and “won’t help” its reputation. “It will mean (the European) Commission will surely have to reassess how it spends” funds on Ukraine’s energy sector, the official said, adding that Kiev would have to provide “more attention and transparency in how it spends cash.”
An EU government official told Politico that Zelensky “needs to comfort everyone … with a plan on how to fix corruption.” A former senior Ukrainian official said he expected the EU to make aid more conditional on reforms, but argued that “the overall taboo on criticizing Ukraine in public will hold.”
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz told Zelensky over the phone this week that Berlin expected Ukraine to “press ahead with anti-corruption measures and reforms.”
The scandal has led to the resignation of two government ministers and damaged Zelensky’s image at home and abroad, especially because he won the 2019 presidential election on an anti-corruption platform.
He already faced a backlash over the summer when he tried to restrict the independence of the two leading anti-corruption bodies, NABU and SAPO, only to relent following protests in Kiev.
On Thursday, Zelensky imposed sanctions on Mindich and his business partner Aleksandr Zukerman, both of whom hold Israeli passports.
Two jews, Timur Mindich and Aleksandr Zukerman — now there’s a surprise !!! After being caught they leg it isra-hell.
” EU official as saying that “the endemic corruption” in Ukraine is “revolting” and “won’t help” it’s reputation.” — Ha Ha Ha 🙂 Have these same “EU officials” EVER examined the EU Books ??? EVER ???
“An EU government official told Politico that Zelensky “needs to comfort everyone … with a plan on how to fix corruption.”” — Ha Ha Ha: The jew queer needs to fix corruption! That’s like getting a fox to guard a hen house. This article is a sick joke.

Yes, but as the guys from The Duran point out, shift your focus on the millions in this corruption, and ask where the hundreds of billions that have poured into the black hole that is Ukraine, have disappeared.
LOL..
The EU is ‘disgusted’ with the corruption in the Ukraine, even though they facilitate it and even though the EU itself is orders of magnitude more corrupt..talking of which, because they’ve never had one,..they were forced to accept an audit themselves 25 years ago, for transparency of course but the person behind the idea mysteriously died and it never got done..unsurprisingly.. which is all rather opaque..wouldn’t you say..
One has to chuckle at the sort of scrawl we have here, a PSA from the gremlins on high, perception management..instructing their minions to get furiously scrubbing and polishing the communitarian turd… wash a few minds…and halo’s..
you can almost smell the fart gas over here on pirate rock, but we’ve got plenty of scrubbers of our own furiously rasping into into the void..
so it’s difficult to detect..
the most corrupt is Zelensky himself !
one parasit united with other parasites .
model are the EU parasites : first Ursula !
That’s rich, given that the EU is itself a vast Ponzi scheme. Zelensky and his gang are mere amateurs by comparison.
