Before being appointed as General Prosecutor, Ruslan Riaboshapka was responsible for its legal department and relationships of the President with courts.
Riaboshapka is well known for his resignation from the National Agency for Prevention of Corruption (NAZK) back in 2017 when several members of the agency resigned during a crisis. While a member of NAZK since 2016, he called for re-launching of the agency and appointing new leadership, due to its poor task performance over checking the electronic asset declarations. Riaboshapka is one of the founders of the Center for National Sustainability and Development.
