What incriminating information did Ukraine’s National Anti-corruption Bureau, or Nabu, have on Zelensky’s inner circle? Whatever it was, it was serious enough for presidential chief of staff Andrew Yermak to convene parliament from recess and rush through a Bill effectively shutting down the agency in less than 72 hours.

Zelensky’s term of office formally expired in May 2024, and he remains in office under wartime emergency powers despite calls for him to create a government of national unity.

“In May 1940 Winston Churchill invited the leader of the opposition Attlee to be his deputy and united all of parliament in one government,” says opposition MP Oleksiy Goncharenko. “Zelensky has done the opposite, he is holding on to power by all means possible.”
