El presidente ucraniano, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, se enfrenta a una reacción violenta por un proyecto de ley que firmó el martes por la noche y que, según los activistas, debilita los organismos de control anticorrupción del país. El miércoles estallaron protestas en Kiev contra la ley.

Ukraine Invasion

Ukraine has seen its first major anti-government demonstrations since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion, following President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's signing of a controversial bill. The legislation, which was fast-tracked through parliament, gives Ukraine's prosecutor more control over two previously independent anti-corruption agencies. 

Critics argue the bill undermines the agencies' independence and may be politically motivated. The European Union has expressed concern, calling the move a setback for Ukraine's EU membership aspirations. Meanwhile, peace talks between Ukraine and Russia remain uncertain, with little expectation of significant progress.

Pasemos ahora a los acontecimientos de Ucrania, el país está viendo su primer gran manifestaciones antigubernamentales desde de la invasión a gran escala de Rusia hace más de tres años. Ahora estas protestas comenzaron después de que los legisladores en Kiev aprobó un proyecto de ley que los críticos dicen que debilita la independencia de las agencias anticorrupción de Ucrania. Para más información, hablemos ahora con CBS News corresponsal extranjero, Rami Innocencio. Rami, ¿qué más sabemos sobre estas enmiendas y esta reacción visceral en Ucrania? Errol, sí, buenos días. Absolutamente visceral aquí. Protestas de indignación que estamos viendo han surgido en toda Ucrania, desde Kiev, la capital, hasta Lviv, en el oeste, Dnipro en el este, y Odessa en el sur. Miles de personas han exigido que Volodymyr Zelensky vete esa ley, pero ahora sabemos que, de hecho, la firmó. Lo firmó tranquilamente anoche, y después de haber sido acelerado, de hecho, a través del Parlamento vía Rada. Esto significa que el equivalente ucraniano de su fiscal general, llaman al fiscal, tiene más control sobre no uno, sino dos agencias anticorrupción, y estas realmente son agencias, tienes que entenderlo, son históricamente muy independientes e independientemente del partido político. Por ejemplo, en abril, hubo un ex político de la administración de Zelensky que fue acusado de lavado de dinero y también de aceptar un soborno, perdón. Algunos críticos alegan que este proyecto de ley, sin embargo, es una retribución política. La UE también está vigilando. El comisario del bloque, que está a cargo de la expansión de este bloque, y recordatorio, Ucrania quiere unirse a la UE, dijo que era un serio paso atrás. Dijeron que es importante porque la lucha contra la corrupción es crucial para que Ucrania se una a ese bloque. Bueno, esperamos que Ucrania y Rusia mantengan otra ronda de conversaciones de paz en Turquía esta semana. ¿En qué punto se encuentra todo esto? Bien, no contengas la respiración, aparentemente, Errol. Volodymyr Zelensky dijo el lunes que las conversaciones estaban previstas para hoy. Todavía estamos esperando la confirmación sobre si esas conversaciones tendrán lugar realmente. Ayer, el Kremlin echó un jarro de agua fría sobre cualquier expectativa de que esas conversaciones se produzcan. Eso vino de Dmitry Peskov. Es un portavoz, diciendo que Moscú no esperaba, según sus palabras, un avance milagroso, y que las dos partes eran básicamente opuestas entre sí. Sabemos que Rusia quiere que Ucrania ceda territorio que Rusia controla, y quiere que Ucrania renuncie a sus ambiciones de entrar en la UE y para la OTAN, como acabamos de hablar, y también quiere que Ucrania reduzca su ejército. Pero estamos viendo que si hay algún movimiento, podría ser en el área de intercambio de prisioneros o rehenes. En los últimos dos meses, por ejemplo, ambas partes han intercambiado más de 1.000 prisioneros, así que podríamos ver, potencialmente, algún movimiento si las conversaciones siguen adelante. De acuerdo, lo observaremos de cerca. Remy.
