flag Ukrainian anti-corruption agencies raided parliament on Dec. 27, 2025, blocking access during an investigation into a vote-buying scheme involving current lawmakers.

flag Ukraine’s anti-corruption agencies reported blocking by security forces during a raid on parliament on December 27, 2025, as part of an investigation into a suspected vote-buying scheme involving current lawmakers. flag The National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) and Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office (SAPO) said they uncovered an organized criminal network tied to illicit payments for legislative votes, though details remain limited. flag The probe follows high-profile corruption cases, including a $100 million energy sector kickback scheme linked to a close associate of President Zelenskyy, which led to the resignation of his chief of staff. flag The investigation intensified amid a major Russian missile and drone attack on Kyiv that killed one and injured dozens, worsening winter power outages. flag The timing coincided with Zelenskyy’s peace talks in the U.S., as public frustration over corruption grows during wartime.
