If you’re going to try and call somebody out like that, you should do your homework.
The only times since 1998 (the first year of data for Ukraine) that Russia was deemed less corrupt than Ukraine were the stretches from 2000-2004 and 2011-2015.
Ukraine performed better than Russia 1998-1999, 2005-2008, 2010, and 2017-2023. They were a cumulative 20 points better on corruption than Russia over that time.
No, I’m talking about the 2004 elections. In case you’d forgotten, Russia was so upset about failing that they attempted to assassinate the rightful winner. When Yanukovych eventually gained power, he was so transparent about wanting to turn Ukraine into an authoritarian vassal state of Russia that parliament removed him and undid his efforts to convert the presidency into a dictatorship. And then he fled to Russia.
That’s a lie.

2020-2023 - Russia is more corrupt
2012-2019 - more or less the same, sometimes Russia wins sometimes Ukraine
1995-2012 - Ukraine is more corrupt
Are you talking about 2010 elections?

You’re either lying again, or using the typical western-liberal “it’s only democracy if our candidate winds” (or, well, both).
Nice disinformation bro
