Otar Dovzhenko: Ukraine’s media market is a tabula rasa that could aid in post-war recovery
Russia’s full-scale invasion in February 2022 dealt a staggering blow to the Ukrainian media market, which had already been struggling prior. The media have lost their regular audience.

Alexander Onishchenko, a Ukrainian MP who recently fled the country (and is accused of embezzling funds from a state-owned gas producer), has accused president Petro Poroshenko of creating a huge system of political corruption.
