While Ukraine continues its struggle against Russia's invasion, another war has been raging within the country for years: corruption has been a long-standing internal enemy since the collapse of the Soviet Union, with high-profile investigations exposing corrupt practices at various levels. It poses significant implications for Ukraine's future, including its military efforts and aspirations of joining the EU. The High Anti-Corruption Court has managed to produce verdicts despite the ongoing conflict with Russia. Additionally, efforts are being made to remove corrupt judges and reform the Constitutional Court, a key demand from the EU.
