The Mafia never stole anywhere near what Zelensky and his cronies have.
From Tyler Durden at zerohedge.com:
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán is having a “told you so” moment as Ukraine’s massive corruption scandal which has already taken down the country’s Justice Minister and several other high officials has come to light. The crisis has entered Ukraine’s presidential office, with at least one close Zelensky business associate, Tymur Mindich, having fled the country already, just as the major embezzlement and kickbacks scandal involving the state-owned nuclear power company was made public.
Orban commented on X in a scathing denunciation of Zelensky’s rule that Ukraine has been taken over by a “wartime mafia network” and that “the golden illusion” of an underdog nation heroically resisting the Russians is “falling apart”. The crisis centers ironically on Ukraine’s state-run energy sector at a moment common Ukrainians are suffering amid rolling blackouts and relentless Russian aerial attacks on the power grid.
“A wartime mafia network with countless ties to President Volodymyr Zelensky has been exposed,” stated the Hungarian leader. “The energy minister has already resigned, and the main suspect has fled the country.”
He then unleashed on those Eurocrats who’ve long wagged their finger at Hungary for not stepping up to do more in funding Ukraine. This has simultaneously included years of immense pressure from Western Europe for Hungary to sever its energy dependency on Russian imports, which Orban has at various times warned would sink the economy if done drastically.
