Since it has become obvious that NATO accession is no realistic option for Ukraine in the foreseable future, its best chance for enduring Western support and security guarantees is EU accession. To endager that perspective with this new law is, to put it midly, very shortsighted
Timely Martin Wolf column: "Ukraine is fighting for the right of a people to choose their own fate. Russia is an autocracy, as it has always been, ruled by a president whose will is law. Ukrainians are fighting with great skill and courage for freedom from such tyranny and so to…

Thank you for this honest comment. And attacks against the Ukrainian Civil Society and volunteers (who are the backbone of the army) will not make the country win.
Zelensky, or Yermak, delivers a PR gift to Putin - backtrack, please. open.substack.com/pub/timothyash…
Тобто, Президент стверджує, що колишні члени ОЗПЖ в парламенті проголосували за те, щоб "антикорупційна інфстраструктура працювала, тільки без російських впливів" ?
Today’s shocking bill, which tried to overturn an important anticorruption reform, had the stench of something done in a panic. I understand the immediate trigger may have been activation of investigations into the dealings of presidential-office insiders. economist.com/europe/2025/07…
A protest against authorities' decision earlier today to kill Ukraine's anti-corruption infrastructure. First mass protest in Ukraine since full-scale Russian invasion. Video by @ukrpravda_news
This decision is truly, unbelievably, mind-bogglingly stupid. It happens at the worst possible time given the recent positive shifts in US policy. This gifts a strong narrative to bad actors.
There haven’t been any anti-Zelensky protests since the Russian full-scale invasion of 2022, as the Ukrainian society realized that to survive it must stay united. Today’s move, unless reversed, is likely to change that. Soldiers on the front are particularly infuriated.
Зовсім незаслужено за кадром сьогодні залишився народний депутат Максим Бужанський. Саме він і подав проголосовані правки проти САП і НАБУ. Бужанський — відвертий українофоб, сам себе називав антимайданівцем. Роками працював ведучим у Медведчука. Відмовлявся вставати під час…
Zelenskyy should not sign this bill. “Ukrainian lawmakers vote to scuttle independence of anti-corruption agencies “ politico.eu/article/ukrain…
Last week, we ran an editorial warning of an anti-democratic backslide in Ukraine. Today, it’s happening in plain sight. This isn’t what our people have been fighting and dying for, and it’s devastatingly unfair to them.
Absolute shame to @ZelenskyyUa and his cronies who are now openly ruining the agency of anti-corruption institutions in wartime. This is not going to happen.
⚡️🤬 The Ukrainian Parliament has passed draft law #12414 – a move widely seen as dismantling the country’s anti-corruption institutions
Seriously concerned over today’s vote in the Rada. The dismantling of key safeguards protecting NABU’s independence is a serious step back. Independent bodies like NABU & SAPO, are essential for 🇺🇦’s EU path. Rule of Law remains in the very center of EU accession negotiations.
