The debate over the independence of Ukraine’s anti-corruption institutions has reached a critical point of engagement. In response to a hastily passed law, the Ukrainian government proposed a new alternative bill, aiming to eliminate threats to Ukraine’s fight against corruption. Yet, challenges remain.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has defended a controversial new anti-corruption law that sparked public protests across Ukraine this week, assuring citizens that the independence of Ukraine’s anti-corruption bodies will not be compromised and that revisions are already underway.
