“The root of the problems in the state’s anti-corruption policy is precisely Artem Sytnik,” the politician said, adding that this is his own opinion.

Tatarov is convinced that the current head of NABU has no moral right to hold this position and must leave.

“Various criminal proceedings surrounding Sytnyk are being investigated. Through a court decision, investigators examined Sytnik’s emails and found that he influenced the decision-making of economic courts in the interest of his family and friends,” said the deputy director of the OP.
