Summary of the week. People who were never elected, who do not declare themselves and do not hold any official positions, in the Zelenskyy era have more power than state institutions. They appoint ambassadors and supervisory boards and place their people in state monopolies and capable positions.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The impotent government, it turns out, is unable to say “NO” not only to Bankova but also to left-wing dudes whose only title is “personal friend of the president.”<\/p>\n

These guys decide how to distribute the state budget, where to redirect funds from Western partners who lend to the country, and which generations of Ukrainians will repay as debt. They run the military-industrial complex, determining who to lend to, not from the standpoint of efficiency, but from personal interest.<\/p>\n
