Ukraine’s Deputy Prime Minister for Rebuilding and Minister for Communities, Territories and Infrastructure Development, Oleksandr Kubrakov, and the head of the European Union Anti-Corruption Initiative (EUACI), Allan Pag Kristensen, signed a memorandum of understanding between the ministry and EUACI in Kyiv on 16 March.
Cooperation between EUACI and the Ministry will include support for the development of a national geographic information system, monitoring of regional development and reconstruction, and the establishment of an Integrity Support Unit within the Ministry to provide high-level expertise and advice.
“The signing of the Memorandum demonstrates the Ministry’s strong commitment to values of transparency, accountability and integrity and to preventing corruption. We believe that our close cooperation will contribute to mitigating corruption risks and will promote a transparent recovery of Ukraine,” EUACI head Kristensen said.
“Anti-corruption reform is one of the Ministry’s priorities. Citizens and stakeholders need to be confident that all funds will be used efficiently and strictly for their intended purpose. Implementation of anti-corruption activities is mandatory for Ukraine’s reconstruction,” added Oleksandr Kubrakov.
