Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is in Europe, securing major defence deals — including the purchase of Rafale fighter jets from France. But back home, a $100 million corruption scandal is shaking his government to its core.
The investigation centres on Ukraine’s state nuclear agency, involving fake deals, luxury villas, and even a golden toilet — all allegedly funded with public money. Zelensky’s former business partner has fled the country, two ministers have resigned, and top officials are under investigation.
As Ukraine continues to rely on international aid, questions of transparency and accountability are growing louder. While Zelensky seeks more European support, a political crisis threatens to derail his diplomatic momentum.
