Internationale Partner und alle Unterstützer der Ukraine müssen wachsam bleiben und Versuche, die unabhängigen Behörden, Zivilgesellschaft und Medien zu schwächen, sofort erkennen und gegensteuern. Wegschauen oder Schönreden ist keine Option! /8

Der Krieg darf KEINE Ausrede sein, Korruptionsbekämpfung zu vernachlässigen. Im Gegenteil – gerade jetzt braucht die Ukraine starke, unabhängige Institutionen. Druck gegen kritische Zivilgesellschaft, Medien und die Behörden selbst ist kontraproduktiv und risiert den EU-Beitritt. /7

Konsequente Korruptionsbekämpfung ist zentrale EU-Beitrittsbedingung.
Die Angriffe auf NABU und SAPO gefährden:
❌ Das EU-Beitrittsziel
❌ Die westliche Finanzierung (65 Mrd. USD bis 2029) /6

Fortschritt ist real, aber fragil:
📊 Korruptionsindex: Von Platz 144 (2013) auf Platz 105 (2024)
Niemand steht mehr über dem Gesetz!
Diese Erfolge sind das Ergebnis unabhängiger Institutionen und umfassender Reformen. /5

NABU und SAPO ermitteln gegen:
→ 31 Parlamentsabgeordnete
→ Den ehemaligen Zentralbankchef
→ Hochrangige Richter
→ Enge Vertraute des Präsidenten
Gerade diese Erfolge machen die Behörden zur Zielscheibe. /4

Nach dem gescheiterten Frontalangriff folgen subtilere Methoden:
SBU verhaftet NABU-Ermittler unter fragwürdigen Anschuldigungen
Generalstaatsanwaltschaft baut Drohkulissen auf.
Anonyme Telegram-Kanäle verbreiten Desinformation.

Im Juli 2025 versuchte die ukrainische Staatsführung, NABU und SAPO per Blitzgesetz der Generalstaatsanwaltschaft zu unterstellen – ihre Unabhängigkeit zu zerstören. Nur Straßenproteste und massiver internationaler Druck zwangen Zelenskyj zur Rücknahme binnen 48 Stunden. /2

From societal resilience and digital governance to defence innovation — Europe has much to learn from Ukraine.
It’s time to see Ukraine not only as a partner in need, but as a partner in European security.

Just two examples from the last days:
When Russian drones approached Poland, 🇺🇦 warned NATO partners in real time before they had seen the threat.
When drones disrupted Danish airspace, 🇺🇦 offered help and sent instructors to Denmark.

Moscow has used this playbook for decades: first at home, then across its neighbours — from Estonia and Belarus to, most visibly, Ukraine.
These countries, especially Ukraine, have the deepest experience in countering Russian influence — and in Ukraine’s case, open warfare.

One of RU main goals is to weaken the West — to erode our social cohesion, resilience, and support for Ukraine.
RU uses a variety of measures ranging from arson, sabotage, assassinations, cyber-attacks, disinformation campaigns, espionage and drone military overflights.

My key message was:
🇺🇦 From “Help Ukraine” to “Let Ukraine Help Us.”
Europe’s perspective must change. Ukraine is no longer just a recipient of aid — it is becoming a security provider for Europe.

Ukraine’s accession to the EU hinges on a variety of factors. The fight against corruption is one of the most important.
That’s why we as the German-Ukrainian Bureau were happy to have helped the leaders of the NABU & SAPO with their program in Berlin briefing key stakeholders. /1

Russian oil refineries, terminals burn as Ukraine hits Putin's war economy
The attacks disrupted Moscow's oil processing and exports, and created gasoline shortages in some parts of Russia.
In recent weeks, Ukraine stepped up attacks against Russian oil processing and exports, creating a gasoline shortage in parts of Russia. Attacks on 10 plants disrupted at least 17% of RU's refinery capacity, or 1.1 million barrels per day, according to Reuters.

What Trump Actually Wants From a Ukraine Deal
The president has one goal clearly in mind—and his fixation may benefit Kyiv.
Putin’s motivation is simple, even if Witkoff and Trump do not really understand it: He seeks to dominate Ukraine, seize what pieces of it he can, and eradicate its democratic government and national independence, Eliot Cohen writes.
