Zelenskiy unveiled a corruption-fighting program Sunday: removing parliamentary immunity from prosecution; using international competitions to staff independent anti-corruption agencies; promote e-government; offer rewards to citizens who denounce acts of corruption; ask Western countries to prosecute Ukrainian officials involved in corruption; and “decriminalize economic activity to the maximum and punish officials who make artificial claims to business.” Many of these changes would need Rada approval. Ukrainians elect a new parliament on Oct. 27.
