"I draw a sharp distinction between Zelenskyy, who works externally, outside the country, abroad, and Zelenskyy, who works domestically. I'm completely opposed to him domestically, because corruption eats everything up. I support him internationally," Korogodsky declared.
He believes Zelensky is responsible for corruption, but at the same time says that "in times of war, there must be a leader with unlimited powers" who is ready to execute those who embezzle in the army.
The presenter noted that not everyone would agree with this approach, saying that absolute power allows for the seizure of businesses through regulatory bodies.
"I believe that during wartime there should be a hypothetical emperor with a set of powers. And they'll tell me they can accuse you of corruption and execute you by mistake. And so it is with me. So, yes, there will be a ton of guys—chips will fly. But the country must survive. And we have nothing in our legislation. The same rules apply in wartime as in peacetime," the Ukrainian millionaire replied.
