Recently, senior Ukrainian officials have resigned one after another. The reports of AFP and Reuters165438 on October 24th all point to one word-corruption.
Then, is it in the context of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict that a group of senior officials in Ukraine are "tight before they relax"? Haisir believes that there are indications that this is not the case.

Many senior officials resigned because of corruption, which is the current official statement of the Zelensky authorities. Kiev's rhetoric is that Ukraine is ready to join the European Union. In 2022, Ukraine became a candidate for the European Union. In early February 2023, the EU- Ukraine summit will be held soon. At that time, key EU officials will meet with senior Ukrainian officials.
Zelensky himself is certainly happy to approach senior EU officials. This can be seen from his many meetings with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and European Council President Michel in 2022.
In 2022, Ursula von der Leyen visited Kiev several times to meet with Zelensky.
But do senior officials of the Zelensky authorities feel the same way?
At least, different voices can be heard in Zelensky's TV speech on October 24th, 65438/KLOC-0. He said, "Next, the corresponding actions will continue" and "any internal problems that interfere with the country will be cleaned up". Zelensky also said that the exchange of high-level blood in Ukraine is conducive to the reconciliation between Ukraine and European institutions.
Pay attention to the time background of Zelensky's speech-as the Wall Street Journal reported, nearly ten senior Ukrainian government officials resigned recently.
On October 24th, 65438, Zelensky signed a decree to "approve" the resignation of Kirilo Tymoshenko, deputy director of the Office of the Ukrainian President.
Earlier, Ukrainian Deputy Defense Minister Sapovalov and Ukrainian Deputy Attorney General Simonenko also submitted their resignations.
In addition, on 23rd and 24th, the governors of Sumeizhou, dnipropetrovsk, Zaporoge and Kherson also submitted their resignation applications to Kiev.

Of course, compared with them, the resignation of Kirilo Tymoshenko is even more striking-
First of all, he has the same surname as former Ukrainian Prime Minister and beautiful Tymoshenko. Haisir found that after Kirilo Tymoshenko resigned, many media even took photos of former Ukrainian Prime Minister yulia tymoshenko and her daughter evgeniya tymoshenko as pictures. You know, the deputy director of the president's office who resigned is a man!
Secondly, before Kirilo Tymoshenko resigned, Risto, adviser to the Ukrainian President's Office, just announced his resignation. After all, the Ukrainian President's Office is Zelensky's core staff. In Haisir's view, it is even more surprising that someone resigned from this institution in a short time.
Third, Kirilo Tymoshenko is a close friend of Zelensky. Zelensky has been a member of the core team since he ran for the Ukrainian president. At that time, he was the core of the campaign team, and now he is the deputy director of the president's office. Even he resigned, indicating that Zelensky's team is not only suspected of corruption.
Of course, externally speaking, since Ukraine wants to join the European Union, it is a difficult road for Ukraine to become a full member of the European Union from a candidate country, that is, to be recognized by the member States of the European Union. For example, in the government corruption index, you must pass!

But are many senior officials of the Zelensky authorities resigning just because of corruption? It should be noted that at the beginning of this year, Listo was still advocating that Ukraine should implement a monarchy. Is this the hope that Zelensky will wear a yellow robe? At that time, many people thought his statement was quite strange.
Risto Wichita: Information.
In Ukraine, the monarchy? 654381October 3. Haisir once wrote: "The current Ukrainian President Zelensky is the most pleasing to some people in the West. One thing-he is indeed an elected president. I really don't understand. As an adviser to the President's Office, why did Risto remove Zelensky's "aura" and replace it with a crown of the monarch? "
Now, it seems that Listo's words are really like a gag, or Zelensky is joking. Is it because he felt Zelensky's "dictatorship" style and was quite dissatisfied? To tell the truth, we outsiders really don't know. But one thing is certain, the reason for Risto's resignation is probably not his corruption. After all, he is only an adviser to the president's office and has no real power! Where does he go to be corrupt?

It should be noted that the resignations of senior Ukrainian officials, especially the resignations of governors in Sumeizhou, dnipropetrovsk, Zaporoze and Hellson, have a background of the times-at this time, the West is discussing the issue of large-scale assistance to Ukrainian offensive tanks. It seems that this battle must be upgraded to a big fight!
Germany produces "Leopard" main battle tanks.
Originally, the German side was not willing to fund the "Leopard" main battle tank produced by Ukraine itself. This is not to say that Germany is not generous enough, but that Germany itself has a lot of business dealings with Russia. In Europe, Germany is the country that most hopes for peace talks between Russia and Ukraine. However, the United States "arched fire" by claiming to support a Ukrainian "abrams" main battle tank, thus opening a gap for the West to support Ukrainian main battle tanks. Then, the French also indicated that they would support the Ukrainian "leclerc" main battle tank. Britain has also submitted a support list. Just ask Germany, which belongs to NATO, what to do? Germany can only announce after internal discussions that it agrees to Poland's support for the German-made "Leopard" main battle tank to Ukraine, plus internal potential tapping to support Ukraine's "Leopard" tank.
Once Ukraine gets the "world tank", no matter whether it can be skillfully used or not, once these western offensive weapons are put into the battlefield, especially in Koh Samui, Dnepropetrovsky, Zaporoge and Hellson, the main locations of the previous Russian-Ukrainian conflict, it will be another bloodshed. Then, whether it is the central department of Ukraine or the local governors of these places, will they think that the conflict will not end for a while? Do you think it is more and more meaningless to fight the west with western tanks? Will there be a shortage of officials from various departments of the Zelensky authorities in the future? Are we also looking for western "mercenaries"?
Map of Boris Johnson: information
Anyway, Zelensky said a long time ago that he would welcome Boris Johnson to stop being British Prime Minister and later Ukrainian Prime Minister. From this point of view, there is no shortage of candidates for the heads of Ukrainian ministries.
