Deputy General Prosecutor of Ukraine Maxim Krym at his desk discussing the crisis of powers and protection of state interests

"Who Will Really Protect the State?": Deputy Prosecutor General Maksym Krym on the Crisis of Powers and Protecting Ukraine's Interests

Politics 08/07/2026, 10:15
⚖️ Deputy Prosecutor General Maksym Krym revealed key problems facing the department in an interview with RBC-Ukraine. 📉 **Main Challenge:** The Constitutional Court declared the norm regarding the representation of state interests in court unconstitutional. If parliament does not amend the law, the prosecution service will lose the ability to protect state property and the environment. 🏛️ **Bureaucratic Inaction:** Krym states that prosecutors are forced to sue inactive government bodies that ignore the protection of monuments, lands, and forests. 🛡️ **New Tasks:** Over 4.5 years of war, the scope of work has expanded from war crimes to the protection of investments. 📢 **Conclusion:** Debates about the prosecution service's "too broad powers" fail to account for the reality where other state bodies often abdicate the protection of the country's interests.
