Ukrainians took to the streets for a second day to protest a new law they say weakens Ukraine’s anti-corruption watchdogs.

According to Associated Press the legislation, which has also drawn rebukes from European Union officials and international rights groups, has put increased pressure on President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and endangered his public support at a critical phase of the war.

Discontent over the law led to the first major demonstration against the government in more than three years of war, marking the most serious fracture yet in the national unity that has helped Ukraine resist Russia’s invasion.

In Kyiv, thousands of people gathered near the Ukrainian Presidential Office to protest against the law.

"The problem of corruption is directly related to all other problems, including war," said 21-year-old student Yaroslav Telenko.

"An attack on the anti-corruption system of the NABU and SAPO bodies is an attack on me personally, an attack on my friends who serve in the Armed Forces of Ukraine, so for me this is a red line, for me this is unacceptable."

The legislation tightens government oversight of two key anti-corruption agencies.

Critics say the step could significantly weaken the independence of those agencies and give Zelenskyy’s circle greater influence over investigations.

Zelenskyy acknowledged the protests and criticism in his nightly address Wednesday, and he said government and law enforcement agencies had agreed to come up with specific steps to “strengthen the rule of law in Ukraine.”

Those recommendations, he said, would lead to a bill he would propose to parliament to safeguard the autonomy of the agencies.
