Anticorruption agencies arrest four suspects after government forced to backtrack on push to strip them of autonomy.
Ukrainian authorities arrested four officials linked to a defense sector corruption scheme involving inflated military contracts, shortly after lawmakers restored the independence of the National Anti-Corruption Agency and the Specialised Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office. President Zelenskyy, facing criticism for attempting to control these agencies, emphasized their autonomy as vital for effectively combating corruption.
