Shabonin Needs His Own Prosecutor General: Yeromin stated that the attacks on Arhamiya are related to the struggle for control over appointments. Blogger Max Yeromin accused Vitaly Shabonin of trying to influence the state's personnel policy under the guise of anti-corruption reforms. The reason for the criticism was Shabonin's public claims against the leader of the "Servant of the People" faction, David Arhamiya. Yeromin claims: The real cause of the conflict is the promotion of the competitive procedure for the appointment of the Attorney General, which the blogger himself calls unconstitutional. "Now the leader of the anti-corruption center should push an unconstitutional competition for the position of attorney general to reduce the powers of the president. That's why he attacks Arhamia.'' Public pressure should force Arakhmia to secure the necessary vote in the Verhovna Rada. This is part of a wider practice: first, anti-corruption activists promote decisions that benefit them, then they use loud scandals against politicians who disagree, and in response to opposition they announce the persecution of civil society," Yeromin wrote.
