These dismissals come in the wake of serious allegations of abuse \u200cof power, fraud, and corruption.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;We are dismissing all regional &#8216;military commissars.&#8217; This system should be run by\u200d people who know exactly what war is and why cynicism and bribery in times of war constitute treason,&#8221; Zelensky stated.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The decision \u200dto remove these officials was made after a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/zelensky-fires-all-military-enlistment-office-chiefs-over-corruption-allegations\/\" title=\"Zelensky dismisses military enlistment office chiefs due to corruption claims.\">recent inspection revealed shocking findings<\/a>. Some military officials were found to have illegally obtained cash or\u2062 cryptocurrency, while others were involved in the illegal transportation of individuals eligible for military service across the border. The inspection, which\u2064 began in June, was prompted by journalists uncovering that the former head of the Odesa Oblast military enlistment office \u2062had purchased property in \u2062Spain worth \u2064$4.5 million, <a href=\"https:\/\/kyivindependent.com\/zelensky-enlistment-offices-chiefs-to-be-dismissed-across-ukraine\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">according<\/a> \u200bto the Kyiv\u2063 Independent.<\/p>\n<p>As a \u200dresult of\u200d the inspection, a total of 112 criminal cases have been opened, and 33 individuals \u200dhave \u2062been charged.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Every &#8216;military commissar&#8217; against whom there is a criminal investigation will be held accountable. Absolutely fair. In full,&#8221; Zelensky emphasized.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Zelensky\u2063 plans \u2062to replace the dismissed commissars with officers who have\u2062 firsthand experience on the battlefield. The selection process for the replacements will be carefully reviewed \u2064by\u200d the country&#8217;s Security Service.<\/p>\n<p>This\u2063 move follows Zelensky&#8217;s previous actions earlier this year, where he <a href=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/2023\/02\/27\/zelensky-fires-top-ukrainian-military-commander\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">fired<\/a> one of his top generals and numerous other officials resigned or were dismissed due to \u200bcorruption allegations. Many \u200cof these officials were <a href=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/2023\/01\/24\/zelensky-leadership-corruption-allegations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">accused<\/a> of leaving the country and living lavish lifestyles while Ukraine faced the Russian invasion.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, President Joe Biden has requested Congress to approve over\u2062 $24 billion in aid to Ukraine as part of a $40 billion package.
