(MENAFN- UkrinForm) An Ukrinform correspondent reported this.

About two hundred protesters on the square near the Ivan Franko Theater took part in a public discussion organized by activists.

“We decided to hold a public discussion today to better understand the activities of anti-corruption institutions, to explain to people in more detail what NABU and SAPO are, how they work, and why it is important for them to be independent,” the organizers said.

The discussion was moderated by Oleksandr Notevskyi, a media observer for Grunt, and the speaker was Oleh Novikov, a journalist and founder of the Poplava podcast.

As reported, on July 22, the Verkhovna Rada passed a law reducing the powers of NABU and SAP . On the same day, President Volodymyr Zelensky signed it.

Protests against the new law began in Kyiv and other cities of Ukraine.

On July 24, Zelensky approved the text of a bill on the independence of the anti-corruption infrastructure .

On July 25, activists in Kyiv called on Ukrainians to gather on Wednesday, July 30, as well as on the day of the vote, July 31,“to show the MPs that we expect a fair decision from them.”
