As mentioned earlier, the winner of the competition for the head of the Bureau of Economic Security was NABU detective Oleksandr Tsyvinskyi.

On June 24, the selection committee received information from the SBU about a recommendation to conduct a polygraph test on certain candidates whose relatives, as indicated by the SBU, have certain ties to the Russian Federation, including Tsyvinsky.

On July 29, it became known that the European Commission is demanding that the Ukrainian authorities appoint the head of the Bureau of Economic Security as soon as possible in accordance with the law and current selection and appointment procedures.

Kyiv should appoint the Director of the Bureau of Economic Security of Ukraine as soon as possible in accordance with the law on the reform of the BEB and the current selection and appointment procedures... This is necessary to advance the reform of the BEB and ensure its independent and effective functioning, the European Commission spokesman said.
