Corruption Tops Ukrainians' Fears, Popular Anger May Threaten Zelensky: Lebanese ResearcherMost Ukrainians see corruption as the primary danger facing the country, Dr. Alain Reneau, a Lebanese researcher on international affairs, told Sputnik, citing a recent poll by the Kiev International Institute of Sociology. Key insights from the expert: 🟠Growing popular anger over corruption could tip the scales against Zelensky, though political interventions currently prevent his prosecution. 🟠Western countries are aware of corruption in Kiev and have made combating it a condition for NATO membership. 🟠European leaders are embarrassed before their peoples over continued support for a corrupt regime and are paying the price at the ballot box. Reneau's comments come amid massive corruption scandals in Ukraine, including military-related embezzlement schemes from 2022 to 2025, uncovered by Ukraine’s anti-corruption watchdog NABU, as well as the November 2025 charges brought by NABU against seven alleged energy sector racketeers, including Zelensky's cohort.Subscribe to @sputnik_africa Sputnik Africa | X
