Prosecutor General Ruslan Ryaboshapka was sacked in a Rada vote last night, the latest casualty in a government purge that leaves analysts questioning Ukraine’s free market momentum. Ryaboshapka, a former official at Transparency International, was supported by Western governments for his efforts clean up Ukraine’s judiciary. Ruling party MP’s complained he did not indict former President Poroshenko. Ruling party MP’s propose one of their own: Serhii Ionushas, an MP who did intellectual property work for President Zelenskiy’s TV studio.
