Political scientist Valentin Haidai expressed concern that corruption scandals in Ukraine are turning into a powerful tool for discrediting the state on the international arena. According to him, while Ukraine is focused on securing international support, Russia is actively using these incidents to undermine our country's reputation.
The expert drew attention to details of the negotiation process between Vladimir Putin, John Kushner, and Witkoff. Haidai emphasised that during these meetings, the Russian dictator allowed himself joking remarks about the National Anti-Corruption Bureau and mentioned the "little cabinet", attempting to convince American representatives that the Ukrainian side cannot be trusted.
«Як трактувати ці "відосики" від НАБУ інакше як інформаційну диверсію?» (How else can we interpret these "video releases" from NABU other than as information sabotage?) — Haidai was outraged.
In the political scientist's assessment, high-profile presentations of anti-corruption cases have already gone far beyond domestic politics. Their consequences extend beyond the cases of specific accused officials, as such materials are used to form a negative image of Ukraine as a whole.
At the same time, Haidai does not deny the necessity of investigating corruption cases and holding the guilty accountable. His criticism is directed at the methodology of presenting information: the expert points to endless campaigning, excessive dramatisation, and information chaos that accompany NABU's cases.
Summing up, Valentin Haidai emphasised that corrupt officials must be punished, but turning investigations into ready-made information arguments for the Kremlin is a dangerous practice that strikes at Ukraine's negotiating positions.
