Ukraine sees ongoing pivotal changes in its legislative framework as the Verkhovna Rada adopts numerous amendments. Recent adjustments to the Budget Code and State budget reflect a robust move towards refining fiscal policies, including a significant funding boost of 26 billion hryvnia. Constitutional reforms are also underway, highlighted by proposals from President Petro Poroshenko aiming to modify judicial powers and the role of the Prosecutor General. Moreover, the National Guard's new oath ceremony at the historically poignant Rada building underscores a commitment to honoring past sacrifices. Amidst these shifts, international reactions remain mixed, with entities like the EU and the US expressing both support and concerns over procedural violence. Such amendments not only influence the national governance structure but also impact Ukraine's geopolitical interactions, notably with contentious responses from Russian authorities regarding the non-inclusion of DPR and LPR in constitutional discussions.
