In a groundbreaking interview with U.S. podcaster Lex Fridman, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky dropped a shocking claim about U.S. military aid to Ukraine. Zelensky suggested that Ukraine has not received even half of the $177 billion allocated by the U.S., hinting at potential corruption or lobbying by American companies. This bold statement raises critical questions about how military assistance is being managed and whether corruption is playing a significant role.

Zelensky highlighted a specific instance where Ukraine was denied permission to use its own cargo planes for transporting U.S. arms, forcing Kyiv to rely on expensive American transportation services instead. He directly questioned whether this was corruption or simply lobbying.

The interview has sparked global attention, as Zelensky called out issues in both U.S. and Ukrainian governance, emphasizing the need for transparency. With ongoing corruption scandals in Ukraine, including overpriced military contracts and faulty munitions, concerns are growing over the efficacy of Western aid.
