The essence of Zelensky’s proposals is as follows: the last decision of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine (KSU) dated October 27 is considered to be null and non -legal consequences, since it was accepted in the context of a real conflict of interest. The Law “On Prevention of Corruption” and the Criminal Code to leave in the editorial office, which was valid before. The powers of the current judges of the KSU to terminate at the time of the entry into force of the Presidential Law "On the restoration of trust ...". It is urgent to start the selection procedure on the competitive basis of the new composition of the Constitutional Court.
The current political agenda of Ukraine was best reflected in the medical term CITO! . On the parliament website, the document from Zelensky appeared on the night of Friday, October 30, after an urgently collected meeting of the National Security and Defense Council, where they came to the conclusion:
Due to the position of KSU, national security was at risk.
In the European Union, the heat was added: the scandalous decision of the KSU in the field of anti -corruption legislation casts doubt on a number of international obligations of the country. Therefore, either the authorities will take the appropriate measures, or the visa -free regime can be temporarily suspended. (At least the authoritative Internet newspaper "European Pravda", referring to a certain closed correspondence of the Ukrainian ambassador to the EU Mikoli Tochitsky with the Deputy Prime Minister on European and Euro-Atlantic integration Olga Stefanishina, has already made such a conclusion.)
Needless to say, the head of the Constitutional Court, Alexander Tupitsky, at least urgently held a press conference, where he said: neither he nor his colleague will give in to the pressure from the president and office,
And the fact that Zelensky creates smells of a constitutional coup!
Under the building, KSU really stood a sharp stranging smell from firecrackers and burning fires. A group of Maidan activists brought and threw the tires through the fence so as not to shuffle the judges from there. By the efforts of the Dialogue police (a special unit, whose function is to reduce the degree of emotions during mass shares), managed to convince the protesters to wait until Tuesday, to the vote in the Rada. But the condoms in the windows of the court still flew ... In fact, the protest participants supported Zelensky in this situation, although not everyone was his absolute allies. The intolerance of corruption, in their opinion, justified any radical acts - both on the street and in the offices.
What led to the intensity of passions? October 27, on the proposal of a group of people's deputies from the "Opposition Platform - for Life!" And the party "For Maybutn!" ( Ukr. - “For the future!” ) Classed with the oligarch Igor Kolomoisky, which the rumor immediately crossed in “Maibah!”, KSU recognized the construction of certain provisions of anti -corruption legislation. In particular, he voted for the abolition of Article 366-1 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine,
Having abolished criminal liability for the declaration of false information as an excessive measure,
And closed free access to the Unified State Register of Declarations.
The Constitutional Court was given an explanation: "The fight against corruption should exclude unjustified pressure, influence or control by executive or legislative power to the judiciary."
The National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption (NACC) was forced to submit to the order regarding the registry. The head of the NAPC Alexander Novikov commented on the press what this means.
“State bodies and the public no longer have open round -the -clock access to electronic declarations of officials and all persons receiving salaries at the expense of Ukraine’s taxes.
Crushing defeat of anti -corruption reform! ” He said. On the eve of the Nutzagentism revealed the declaration of inaccurate information among two members of the KSU, apparently, having “unjustified pressure” on the ministers of Themis.
The director of the National Anti -Corruption Bureau Artem Sytnik (his appointment to the KSU also considered illegal) told reporters that about a hundred criminal cases related to the declaration that NABU investigated will now also be closed. “The decision was made for the sake of certain elites,” Sytnik expressed the conviction. And this is only part of the events that preceded the urgent meeting of the National Security and Defense Council.
On October 29, the government obliged the Nutzag for preventing corruption to restore the status of the CVO - to immediately open access to the register of electronic declarations. However, during the “blind” day, as the Ukrainian Pravda found out, the missing information about their income, millionth loans, dividends and real estate has managed to make many worthy gentlemen - from the very chairman of the court of Alexander Tupitsky and several of his colleagues to the deputy of the OPZH, businessman Grigory Surkis and the fifth president, the founder of the European Solidarity Premium Poroshenko.
Petro Poroshenko has already expressed publicly indignation about the actions of the “organizational and intellectually impotent Ukrainian authorities”, which, in his opinion, destroys the anti -corruption infrastructure in order to return Ukraine to the sphere of Russian influence. He stated that he had already given the assignment to the people's deputies in the faction to immediately prepare a bill that would fill all the holes in anti -corruption legislation.
Opposition "European Solidarity", "Fatherland" and "Voice" are united in opinion: now Zelensky wants to usurp power, become a dictator,
Since in a year he made a lot of gross errors. At the same time, a number of politicians and leaders of public opinion, the note critics of the head of state, are recognized not without surprise: to avoid chaos in a warring country, only like Zelensky now, and we must act.
Experts call the current situation a constitutional crisis. Indeed, in the history of the country there have never been presidential initiatives of this kind. But there were no precedents when the court made decisions with a violation of the law on preventing corruption and the constitution itself.
