Medvedko Gives Himself a Pat on the Back

Prosecutor-General Oleksandr Medvedko: The prosecution has gone through injustice and has saved its moral face. Let me emphasize that this is being made possible through our people, who, on a daily basis, carry out their job duties with dignity. And therefore, at today’s meeting, I’d say the successes in prosecutorial activities and the present shortcomings and failures are a mirror image of appointment decisions.

Should we call that moral face “see no evil, hear no evil?” Why do we have a zero conviction policy in high-profile white-collar crime cases? As Prosecutor-General in a country that ranks 118th on the Corruption Perceptions Index, why do you wear a $10,000 watch? Has Ukraine’s GDP per capita already reached $10,000?
