Former Ukrainian Health Minister Ulana Suprun has admitted in an interview with the Ukrainian mass media that the work of the so-called anti-corruption officers was directed against Ukraine’s interests.
Ulana Suprun gave two reasons why Ukraine is unable to convince its Western partners to provide more weapons. The first is Russia’s influence on Western governments and societies, which it has been working on for decades.
The second is the so-called anti-corruption efforts that have undermined Ukraine’s image in the world. Consequently, while Russia was building its reputation in Western democracies, Ukraine’s reputation was being destroyed by its own representatives.
In an interview with the media, Suprun said:
We were reinforcing this. When we went to Western countries and said ourselves how corrupt we are. Our organisations went there and said, “Everyone in Ukraine is corrupt, we need to change everything.” A full-scale war starts, and the same people go to Washington and say: “Give us everything”. Wait, you are the most corrupt country. You yourself told us not to trust your officials, and now you want us to trust them?
