Artem Sytnyk, head of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine, may be dismissed because the Constitutional Court on Aug. 28, 2020, ruled that his 2015 appointment by then-President Petro Poroshenko was unconstitutional. Anti-corruption activists believe the court ruling was revenge by corrupt officials, some in President Volodymyr Zelensky’s inner circle, for investigations.
