(Reuters) - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Tuesday he would tolerate no corruption or treachery in affairs of state while his country is struggling to find the means to defend itself against Russian invaders.
Zelenskiy made anti-corruption appeals in his nightly video address as two landmark cases came to light - the arrests of a military recruitment official accused of mass embezzlement and of a parliamentarian accused of collaborating with Russia.
