Ukraine's Zelensky Faces Backlash Over Anticorruption Agency Law

President Zelensky of Ukraine has enacted a law that limits the independence of two key anticorruption agencies. He asserts this is vital to purge "Russian influence" from these bodies, citing searches of investigators with alleged Russian ties. However, critics, including a prominent military intelligence general and war veterans who organized protests, question the evidence for these ties and view the move as an overreach of presidential authority. This action has sparked street demonstrations and internal debate within Ukraine, marking the first significant public opposition to Zelensky since the full-scale Russian invasion.
