Reasoning:

• Mykhailo Podolyak, an adviser to the Ukrainian President's Office, did blame Russia for corruption in Ukraine, but specifically attributed it to the Kremlin and its political influence system, not to "Russianness" as an ethnic or cultural trait¹².
• Podolyak stated: "This is a logical continuation of the past, when the Kremlin has been creating a system for decades to keep Ukraine in its sphere of influence. Corruption was one of its main tools"¹.
• The claim misrepresents Podolyak's actual statement by substituting "Kremlin" (a political entity) with "Russianness" (an ethnic/cultural identity), which are fundamentally different attributions.
• In other statements, Podolyak described corruption as "an integral part of the modern economy" that exists across all political systems, not unique to any nationality³.
• No sources indicate Podolyak used terms equivalent to "Russianness" (русскость/russkost) or attributed corruption to Russian people, language, or culture; his criticism was directed at Moscow's state policy and political influence networks².
