The Jimmy Dore Show It’s long been established that corruption is a rampant issue in Ukraine, and that continues to this day as hundreds of billions of dollars flood into the country to fuel the war against Russia. Now journalist Seymour Hersh is revealing that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has been purchasing Russian oil with American dollars and then skimming some off the top for himself.
Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the bizarre morass of corruption swirling around Zelensky.

Gluttonous probably not selling it to Ukraine directly. The fuel is probably in the market where it is sold to whoever wants to buy it.
Of course this is going on. Did anyone think not.
My friend says the number of Ukrainian billionairs turning up in Monarco is unbelievable, the property, yachts, the girls, the cars, he says many of the top end cars even have Ukrainian number plates…not 1oz of shame amounst them !
I knew Zelinsky was a snake when he blamed the missiles that landed in Poland on Russia. He stared full face into the camera and "we must act," he said, trying to provoke more American involvement in the conflict.
There is nothing new under the sun. In WW2 Standard Oil of New Jersey was selling oil to Germany via Spain. Not one of their oil tankers was ever torpedoed by the Kriegsmarine U boats.
The unprincipled usa hardly cares about this corruption so long as it does stop the war grift. The murderous sadistic blood soaked usa and nato are guilty as hell!!
4chan called this wayyyy in advance. Suddenly Ukraine corruption is a problem? They're smearing zelenskyy and they're gonna scapegoat him, and the west is gonna facilitate transfer of ownership of all that land it wanted. The u.s. gets to broker peace, putin gets his land, the u.s. doesn't have to compete with the pipeline they blew up, and everything goes back to relative normality. Like none of it ever happened
All funded with u.s. taxpayer money. Why aren't all the slaves currently living in the United States of America throwing off their tyrannical government with all those guns?
It stated in the report that it was an American intelligence officer making the claim of the sale on diesel. 99% sure it's bullshit.
Putin wants to eradicate the Ukrainian military so he sells them the diesel to get them close enough to kill. Simple.
all the top casinos and luxury holiday resorts are about to have a new breed of millionaire from the Ukraine, thank, all from the US tax payers
Just think how nice this world would be without fucking Wars !!!
oh wow, just like Ashraf Ghani….who didnt see that coming?
Bend over Biden!!!
To explain it: they would get that oil anyway from other much more expensive sources.. So Putin mat as well make a profit. Putin may also hope the corruption is exposed later.
Russia sells diesel to Ukraine because Putin knows they will get the diesel from somewhere, may as well let Russian companies profit off it. Not selling them diesel doesn't mean they won't be able to get it elsewhere. They'd just be paying more for it, with our money.
No shit –
It's not putin who is selling fuel to zelenski, its private companies that do. Putin doesn't control private businesses.
Without Russian Diesel the war in Ukraine would long be over .. this means : Putin and Zelensky work together !!! ..
When Ukraine fall zelensky will become an american citizen
I guess the Russians have their own military industrial complex.
I didn't listen to everything that you said yet but I'm saying if I was dolinski he better have 400 million dollars won the war doesn't work out and he's got to get the f*** out of Dodge, but honestly I expect them to take some money so they could get away and go to different country and be free,
What killed me is at the time I was talking to Trump and they took his basically good conversation and turned it around, Darren teaching him once he inquired about the Ukraine, they have so much corruption that they panicked and impeach them out of a perfectly good conversation
Lick the world.
I think the conflict IS the endgame
All transactions are run through front companies. Supplies are bought via [insert company name], paid by the US at an inflated rate. The diesel sourced in Russia is sold on the "open" market, where it is procured by an Intermediary company. Then, the diesel is sold on to Ukraine. Everyone in the process gets a nice cut of the deal, and the war is prolonged to ensure more money is made, and weapons suppliers get more contracts. The real corruption takes place at a basic level. Paying too much for diesel, for uniforms, for food, for all the things needed to supply an army in the field. Wouldn't surprise me if they were skimming money off the price of body bags.
The Ukraine is etymological correct. That is why The Ukraine used to be the proper way to address.
