The SAP is the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office, which has been operating in Ukraine since September 22, 2015. Since 2022 it has been headed by Oleksandr Klymenko.

So what is the SAP and what does it do? In particular, the powers of the prosecutor's office include:

• supervising compliance with the law during operational and investigative activities and pre-trial investigations by the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU);
• supporting the state prosecution in the relevant proceedings;
• representing the interests of a citizen or the state in court in cases provided for by law and related to corruption or corruption-related offenses, as well as representing, within its competence, the interests of the state in cases on declaring assets unjustified and recovering them to the state.
