Joe Biden stated that he had called for Shokin’s removal (and threatened to withhold $1 billion in loan guarantees to Ukraine) because Shokin had declined to pursue major corruption cases and thus had perpetuated rather than combated corruption in the Ukrainian government

Regarding the removal of Victor Shokin:

Biden: “I said, I’m telling you, you’re not getting the billion dollars. I said, you’re not getting the billion. I’m going to be leaving here in, I think it was about six hours.

He got fired.” https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2019/09/27/flashback_2018_joe_biden_brags_at_cfr_meeting_about_withholding_aid_to_ukraine_to_force_firing_of_prosecutor.html
