They both suffer from corruption but the aggressive actions of Russia make it the worse country.

Zelensky took the helm at a country suffering from corruption which had been invaded five years earlier by Russia with a new mass invasion taking place a couple of years since he took power.
I think that it's unreasonable for him to turn the country's corruption around quickly and his current subsuming issue is fighting for the survival of the country. In terms of motivating the country, his wartime leadership, his ability to get resources from the West there can be few in his country that don't see him as a hero and I suspect most of the West see him as a hero. That's why he was awarded Man of the Year by Time magazine.

As Chris has suggested, the impression gleaned from your points you make is of someone whose expressed opinions of Zelensky and Ukraine follow Putin's playbook, albeit likely totally unknowingly.
