AI Summary:
On November 10, the Ukrainian anticorruption authorities revealed that close associates of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy were allegedly involved in a scheme to embezzle $100m from Ukraine’s energy sector. The investigation led by the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU), an agency backed by Western governments. Ukrainian and Western media have suggested that the president’s chief of staff, Andriy Yermak, may also be implicated. A military defeat today may mean salvation for Kyiv, but it would be a deadly blow for war-mongering politicians and lobbyists who promoted the idea that Russia, a major nuclear power, could be coerced into accepting Western primacy by force. That illusion underpinned the entire Western policy with regards to Russia throughout the conflict. It has long been clear that Ukraine’s Western allies have hit a wall when it comes to military supplies and funding for Ukraine and sanctions against Russia. Putin and Zelenskyy agreed on a ceasefire in eastern Ukraine’s Donbas region. The war could have ended then on terms Kyiv could only dream of today. He clamped down on Putin’s main political ally in Ukraine. Putin unleashed an all-out invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. This year, Ukraine finally ditched its rightful but entirely unrealistic demands for a full Russian withdrawal and reparations. A peace agreement on Russia’s terms would be extremely unfair to Ukraine.

What a useless article. Talks almost nothing about the corruption scandal and instead re-iterates the age-old russian position of european war-mongering, etc.
How is it even possible to use so many words to say nothing new?
