International Civil Society Letter to President Zelensky re. Draft Law #3450
OPEN LETTER SENT BY EMAIL AND POST TO:
Mr. Zelensky, President of Ukraine
16th February 2021
Dear President Zelensky,
We, the undersigned organisations join our voices to this letter from the Board of Trustees of the Whistleblowing International Network (WIN) to urge your leadership to defend the integrity of the law that protects those who risk their careers to fight corruption and block proposed draft Bill which undermines effective protection for public interest whistleblowing in Ukraine.
In December 2019, Ukraine enacted landmark anti-corruption legislation which included whistleblowing protection provisions which were unsurpassed in their compliance with international best practices principles.
