The head of the President’s Office congratulated Andriy Kostin on the start of his work as the head of the GPU, and Oleksandr Klymenko on his appointment as the head of the SAP.
On July 19, the competition commission for the election of the head of the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office determined the winner of the competition. He became NABU detective Oleksandr Klymenko.
Klymenko won the competition back in December 2021, but the results were not approved. The President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy called on July 17 to appoint the winner of the competition as the head of the SAP.
Context
In October 2021, Zelensky announced that the competition for the post of the head of the SAP will end in 2021.
In September 2020, the Verkhovna Rada supported draft resolution No. 4104 on the appointment of representatives of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine to the commission for conducting a competition for the leadership of administrative positions in the SAP.
After that, international diplomats said that the commission should start a transparent process based on the integrity and merit of the candidates. Further EU and US support will depend on this.
On October 13, 2020, the first meeting of the commission for conducting the competition for the leadership of administrative positions in the SAP was held. It started with the fact that the members of the commission argued for more than an hour about the participation in the work of the commission of one of its elected members.
