Mass protests erupted across Ukraine after President Volodymyr Zelensky signed a controversial law that weakened the independence of key anti-corruption agencies. The move sparked outrage among Ukrainians and drew sharp criticism from Western allies and the European Union, who warned it could jeopardize Ukraine's EU membership ambitions. In response to the public outcry and international pressure, Zelensky quickly backtracked, introducing new legislation to restore the agencies' autonomy. The episode marks the largest anti-government demonstrations since Russia's full-scale invasion and highlights the central role of anti-corruption reforms in Ukraine's democracy and international support. The crisis underscores the delicate balance Zelensky must maintain between domestic expectations and the demands of Ukraine's Western partners.
