That seems... Immature? I mean, in a general sense the guy on top is responsible for combating corruption, but really it's usually a systemic and cultural issue as well.
Ukrainians should be grateful towards President Zelensky. He is a hero.
Whenever I read articles like this

I immediately know these are Kremlin talking points, and not to be trusted.
I mean, by all accounts Ukraine has a huge issue with corruption. But it's hardly the fault of the president, although it is of course part of his job (and platform) to force this to change.
