No candidates currently under consideration for prosecutor general post – Zelenskyy
There are currently no candidates for the position of Prosecutor General of Ukraine, so the duties of the head of the Prosecutor General's Office (PGO) are being performed by an acting head, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.
As of now, Ukraine does not have any candidates in consideration for the Prosecutor General position, according to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Until a candidate is nominated, the duties of the head of the Prosecutor General's Office are being carried out by an acting head. Zelenskyy stated this during an interview with reporters on Friday, as reported by Interfax-Ukraine.
The current acting head is relatively new in his role. Zelenskyy suggested that the acting head may prove himself in the future. Zelenskyy also expressed that he does not closely follow the activities of former Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko, who is no longer in the position.
Kravchenko, who left Ukraine amid a scandal surrounding Operation Carthage, recently gave an interview to the Washington Examiner. In this interview, he accused Ukraine's anti-corruption agencies of undermining peace negotiations with Russia by disclosing details about the anti-corruption operation. Anti-corruption agencies counter that Kravchenko is attempting to fabricate a narrative of political persecution to secure political asylum in Austria.
