Quick Glance: US Aid Officials Say Ukrainian Leaders Are Fighting Corruption
- The removal of several top officials from Ukraine's government this week in response to allegations of government corruption has raised new concerns about how Ukrainian officials are dealing with those concerns.
- Mr. Zelensky fired his top prosecutor, intelligence chief, and other senior officials in July for reasons he claimed were related to treasonous ties with Russia.
- Corruption, however, has not been a significant factor in the war, much to the relief of Western and Ukrainian leaders, despite Russian propaganda claims to the contrary aimed at undermining his government.
- Mr. Zelensky, according to Mr. Taylor, had strong incentives to keep corruption in check.

- World markets have brightened slightly this week, but Tesla is facing a critical earnings test, while Europe's business pulse has surprisingly been lively this month.
- Following the worst week on Wall Street since 2022, relief from easing Middle East tensions helped stabilize the situation on Monday. The chip giant Nvidia made a modest recovery from losses as Big Tech megacaps gear up for quarterly earnings releases.
