Kyiv, Ukraine – Amidst a public gathering in the capital, Vitaliy Klitschko, the Mayor of Kyiv, voiced strong opinions regarding the status of Ukraine's anti-corruption institutions. Speaking to attendees, Klitschko underscored his dual commitment to the city and the ongoing fight against corruption. "Firstly, I am the mayor, and this is my city," Klitschko stated, emphasizing his presence at the event. He continued, "Secondly, such actions are very important for me to be here. On one hand, and on the other hand, I fully support those people who, as of today... our partners created anti-corruption bodies and financed them. And for the past 10 years, we have done everything for them to work." The mayor expressed significant concern over recent developments, highlighting a perceived threat to the autonomy of these crucial institutions. "Now, independent bodies want to be made dependent," Klitschko asserted, indicating a shift he views as detrimental. He concluded by reiterating the widespread sentiment among the protesters: "And this is the desire of everyone you ask here, why they came here." The gathering reflects growing public and political scrutiny over the independence and effectiveness of Ukraine's anti-corruption framework, which has been a cornerstone of reforms supported by international partners.
