Y’all got that Burisma story mixed up. The actual news reports show that the Ukranian prosecutor was not actually rooting out the corruption as he was supposed to, so that’s why Biden was bragging about pressuring him publicly.
IIRC, the special prosecutor for corruption in Ukraine didn’t prosecute anyone for corruption under Poroshenko. It was not just the prosecutor that Biden got fired but several different prosecutors who didn’t do anything. Zelensky even made fun of the prosecutor’s office for that in his show Servant of the People. In the show President Zelensky had to hire his ex wife before they started prosecuting anyone. In real life, the prosecutor didn’t prosecute anyone until Zelensky was in office. So it was obviously a Poroshenko thing.

Lots of corruption under Poroshenko, and much closer ties to Russian interests.
Good summary.
