Ukrainians have taken to the streets in cities such as Kyiv, Lviv, Dnipro, and Odesa, as protests erupted in response to a controversial law passed by the parliament. The legislation grants the prosecutor general sweeping powers over the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office (SAPO), sparking widespread demonstrations. Demonstrators are concerned that the new law could weaken the independence of these institutions, which play a key role in Ukraine’s efforts to combat corruption.
