Ukraine corruption

The World

We’ve seen a lot of talk around the whistleblower, President Donald Trump’s conversation with Volodymyr Zelensky about Joe Biden, and allegations of corruption, but how is all of this seen in Ukraine? Ukraine finds itself stuck between Russia and the West and while Zelensky and his party continue to push for reform, Ukraine is still bogged down by heavy corruption. Host Carol Hills speaks with Valeria Gontareva, the former governor of Ukraine’s Central Bank.
