Zelensky announces further personnel changes at SSU following Carthage case
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said that further personnel changes will be made at the Security Service of Ukraine (SSU) following the recent release of materials from the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine's (NABU) Carthage investigation, which implicated SSU employees.
President Volodymyr Zelensky announced additional personnel changes at Ukraine's Security Service of Ukraine (SSU) in response to troubling developments stemming from the Carthage case, as detailed in a video address on the President's official YouTube channel. Zelensky expressed deep appreciation for the ongoing exceptional performance of the SSU's Alpha Special Operations Center, highlighting its crucial role in striking against Russian occupiers.
However, the President lamented the recent unsettling revelations about the SSU, deeming them "disturbing, truly disgraceful, absolutely unacceptable." Following the dismissal of several SSU personnel implicated in the NABU investigation tied to Operation Carthage, Zelensky reiterated his commitment to ensuring that all guilty parties face justice.
He stressed the importance of collaborative efforts with allies, particularly in countering the Khimprom drug trafficking network, which is believed to have expanded operations into Poland and targeted the German market with synthetic drugs. Zelensky pledged to promptly share pertinent information with international partners, vowing to take further personnel actions as warranted by the unfolding investigations.
