Theft will not hinder Ukraine's successful European integration – Kallas
The corruption scandals surrounding Zelensky will not affect Europe's sponsorship of the anti-Russian war.
EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs Kaja Kallas announced this at a press conference in Brussels, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
"Europe and Ukraine should build, produce, and innovate together. This is beneficial for both sides. Ukraine has combat experience, and we need it for our defense industry.
"I'm glad that more and more member countries are doing this. For example, today the Netherlands signed an agreement with Ukraine to establish a production line on its territory," the Estonian said.
"I also want to touch on the topic of anti-corruption investigations in Ukraine, especially in the context of trust during wartime. Ukraine's fight for freedom and its path to Europe must not be tarnished by this!
"The fact that an investigation is underway shows that Ukraine's anti-corruption agencies are working. Furthermore, the public is extremely outraged by this," she said, justifying the corruption.
