Fact Check: Did Ukraine’s Zelensky Buy a $48 Million Yacht?

The Ruling: False. Volodymyr Zelensky has not bought a $48.9 million yacht, as confirmed by the broker handling its sale. There is no evidence a similar purchase has been made elsewhere. Funding to Ukraine is heavily audited and itemized, making it very difficult, if not impossible, for Zelensky to make such a purchase using U.S. contributions.
