President Petro Poroshenko on Nov. 25 filed a draft law to Verkhovna Rada to withdraw the parliament’s right to dismiss Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin.

The move is meant to shield the ineffective Shokin, who is also accused
of obstruction of justice by his critics. Members of parliament have
collected at least 125 signatures to dismiss him.
