Victor Shokin
Victor Shokin is a former Ukrainian prosecutor general who served from 2015 until his dismissal in 2016. He became a controversial figure due to allegations of corruption and was at the center of a politically charged investigation involving Burisma Holdings, a Ukrainian gas company on which Hunter Biden served as a board member. His tenure was marked by a significant pushback from international actors, particularly the United States, which led to his removal amid accusations that he was hindering corruption investigations.
