Ukraine: Zelensky faces crises amid corruption scandal

After being drawn into a multi-million corruption scandal, Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelenskyy might now be facing a widening crises in his government, reports The Independent on November 21st.

Facing pressure on different fronts, with Russia continuing its advances and the emergence of a very unfavourable peace proposal from the US, Ukraine’s President is increasingly isolated as critics from his own party are questioning his leadership.

Ukrainians are also voicing their opposition, particularly due to Zelenskyy’s refusal to sack his controversial Chief of Staff Andrii Yermak.
