“...In the near future I am going to do something - I will tighten the laws that relate to corruption... You know well that we have a decree on the use of the death penalty as the highest measure of justice. And, I think, corruption will fall under this definition. Depending on the harm caused to society, corruption will be punished under martial law by deprivation of life. I have already held a number of negotiations with the People's Council and received full understanding. We only disagreed on some of the nuances and wording of the law, but this is a technical issue, we must resolve them,” Zakharchenko said, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
“Without a doubt, corruption is a disease of any society. There is no specific drug for this disease. Everyone has their own approaches to eradication; in the DPR the issue is posed very strictly. At a certain moment, I decided that, regardless of ranks and services to the Fatherland, those found guilty of corruption should be judged and imprisoned,” the head of the DPR emphasized.
