Zelensky Moves Against Spy Chief Amid Rising Cabinet Tensions | Times Now World

As Ukraine’s battlefield losses mount, cracks are now exploding inside Zelensky’s own government. According to The Economist, President Zelensky’s powerful adviser Andriy Yermak is targeting top officials — including Prime Minister Shmyhal and spy chief Kyrylo Budanov — in a secretive bid to consolidate control. The corruption case against Deputy PM Chernyshov is seen by many as politically motivated, clearing the path for Yermak’s protégé. Meanwhile, Budanov has barely survived repeated ouster attempts, reportedly thanks to U.S. pressure. One insider warns: “The Russians are slow roasting us… while we are playing at idiotism.” As Kyiv descends into paranoia and betrayal, Ukraine’s leadership appears to be collapsing from within — not under Russian attack, but by its own hand. #zelensky #ukraine #kyiv #spychief #budanov #yermak #ukrainecrisis #powerstruggle #ukrainewar #trump #politicalturmoil #leadershipcrisis #coupattempt #usukrainerelations #governmentcollapse #tnworld #timesnowworld #worldnews #internationalnews #timesnews #newsworld ​Subscribe now: http://bit.ly/3VHIl37 Times Now World is your definitive source for comprehensive global news and analysis.
