Zelenskyy criticises Ukraine's SBU security service over corruption scandal

Zelenskyy said the SBU will face personnel changes and new asset disclosure rules after anti-corruption investigators charged senior officials over a sprawling criminal ring.

  • On Saturday, President Volodymyr Zelenskiy promised more "personnel decisions" at the Security Service following a corruption scandal that fueled public anger over official impunity.
  • Investigators revealed the criminal ring ran scam centers, traded drugs, and produced fake currency with help from senior employees of the SBU, National Police, and Prosecutor General.
  • A Ukrainian court ordered the arrest of a former SBU general on Friday, while two police officials and another suspect were also ordered held this week.
  • To eradicate graft and secure European Union membership, Zelenskiy proposed legislation requiring all SBU employees to publicly declare their assets.
  • The National Anti-Corruption Bureau continues an evolving probe as Zelenskiy called the alleged crimes "frankly shameful, absolutely unacceptable," amid public anger during the war with Russia.
