The broadcast highlighted one of the most high-profile corruption cases in recent years—NABU’s investigation into large-scale embezzlement in Ukraine’s energy sector during wartime. Main attention was drawn to searches of Justice Minister Herman Halushchenko and businessman Tymur Mindich, who is linked to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. NABU reported that about $100 million was laundered through the so-called conversion center of Andriy Derkach, designated as a traitor to Ukraine.
The speaker stressed that such sums could have been used to purchase thousands of drones for the front, referencing the scale of aid provided by his charitable fund. He argued that, especially during wartime, corruption should be punished on par with treason, as it undermines the nation’s defense capability.
Special emphasis was placed on the issue of information leaks—Mindich left the country immediately before the searches, indicating a possible leak. It was mentioned that Deputy Head of the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office, Andriy Sinyuk, was served a suspicion because of this leak.
The coverage also examined the importance of authorities responding transparently and swiftly. Featured was the expectation that officials involved in such scandals should either comment publicly or resign to maintain public trust, especially during wartime. Delays in personnel decisions negatively affect cooperation with international partners, whose support is crucial for Ukraine.
The situation at the front was highlighted, particularly in Pokrovsk and the Zaporizhzhia direction, where conditions remain difficult and official statements differ from reports from the ground. The speaker pointed out that dishonesty regarding the real situation carries significant risks for personnel and called for transparency and responsibility among military commanders.
The material concludes with a call for citizens to remain active, support the military, preserve unity, and drive changes necessary for victory and Ukraine’s continued statehood.
