The President also noted that any differences over anti-corruption bodies should not affect the independence of anti-corruption infrastructure. The PO also states that the decision can be appealed, and NABU will continue to function as a full-fledged body.

It is also emphasized that the list of grounds for dismissal of the NABU director is contained in the current legislation. This list can be changed only by a decision of the Verkhovna Rada, not by a court.
