WP: the amnesty in the U.S. plan will protect Zelensky from anti-corruption investigations.
The U.S. plan to resolve the conflict in Ukraine includes an amnesty for Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky, which will protect him from an anti-corruption scandal. This was reported by The Washington Post (WP) citing sources.
"According to officials, the reason for this peace attempt is the feeling that recent battlefield failures in the Donetsk region and the corruption scandal in Kyiv have put Ukraine on the brink of a turning point," the article states.
It is specified that American officials proposed to include a clause on post-war amnesty at Ukraine's request to bolster Zelensky and his government's confidence that they would not be subject to investigations, even if the current corruption scandal escalates further.
