Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has reinstated the independence of the country's two key anti-corruption agencies in an effort to address a growing political crisis. The move comes amid concerns about his leadership during the war and unease among Western allies.
Editor’s Note: This story matters because Ukraine is under intense scrutiny from its Western backers, who want to see progress in fighting corruption—especially during wartime. Zelensky’s decision signals an attempt to reassure both Ukrainians and international partners that governance reforms remain a priority, even as the country fights for survival against Russia.
