Ukrainian parliament restores independence of anti-corruption agencies  - 1

The Ukrainian parliament has adopted a bill to restore the independence of two key anti-corruption bodies. A move that aims to overcome one of the most serious political crises in the country since the beginning of the Russian invasion, news agencies reported, BTA reports.

With an overwhelming majority of 331 votes "for" and not a single "against", deputies supported the measure submitted by President Volodymyr Zelensky last week. The bill was put to a vote after mass civil protests and pressure from high-ranking European Union officials who insisted on restoring trust in institutions and judicial reform.

After approval by parliament, the law will be sent to President Zelensky for signature.
