Zelenskyy moves to restore independence of Ukraine anti-graft agencies after protests, EU criticism
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has submitted a new bill restoring the independence of the country’s anti-corruption agencies.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky signed a new bill that critics says weakens the country's anti-corruption agencies.
President Volodymyr Zelensky reversed course, but it is unclear if that will quell the anger that erupted when he stripped anticorruption agencies of independence.
Analysts say Russia has recently made only incremental gains in its slow and costly advance against Ukrainian defenses.
The move to curb anti-corruption agencies sparked protests, and by Wednesday evening, Zelenskyy had announced a new bill that would retain the independence of the agencies.
