Protesters in Kyiv have gathered to demonstrate against the recent passage of bill No. 12414, which seeks to curtail the autonomy of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office (SAPO). The legislation, approved by the Verkhovna Rada, has drawn criticism for its perceived threat to the effectiveness of Ukraine’s anti-corruption mechanisms. Activists argue that the bill undermines the independence of these institutions, which have played a crucial role in combating corruption within the country. Demonstrators have called for the repeal of the legislation, emphasizing the need for transparent and impartial anti-corruption measures.
