Protests in Ukraine against new anti-corruption law | BBC News

Descripción:

Hundreds of people gathered in Kyiv for the biggest anti-government protest since the start of Russia's full‑scale invasion in February 2022. The protest follows President Volodymyr Zelensky's signing of a bill that critics say weakens the independence of Ukraine's anti‑corruption bodies. The new law gives the prosecutor general control of the National Anti‑Corruption Bureau and the Specialised Anti‑Corruption Prosecutor's Office, a move critics say undermines their authority. Zelensky said both agencies would still "work" but need to be cleared of "Russian influence".
