In the president’s office they say that corruption is “an enemy no less insidious than the one that threatens us in the east of the country.”

The OP says that corruption is “an enemy no less insidious than the one that threatens us in the east of the country”, and claims that Ukraine is still at the beginning of its journey.
“Unfortunately, the development of the anti-corruption infrastructure dragged on for years. Criminals received political cover. And the ability of corrupt officials to question the activities of anti-corruption bodies was simply prescribed in the laws. This is what they finally allowed through of the Constitutional Court to cancel the article of the Penal Code, which established the responsibility of illegal enrichment, recognizing the wording of this article in such a way that it violated the presumption of innocence of a person. That became, in fact, an amnesty for thousands corrupt officials and deputies, “said the publication.

May all Ukrainians who are sincerely interested in getting rid of it give his response, with which the political environment can no longer argue. of this shameful phenomenon. So that even corrupt officials who “escaped” punishment for five years of the previous government, see: they will never have opportunities, and the risks increase many times. The current state cannot afford to tolerate even the slightest bit of corruption “, – added in the president’s office.
Finally, the OP clarifies that “such a poll, unlike a referendum, will not have direct legal consequences, but will give each citizen the opportunity to speak so that the politicians will really listen.”
