Denmark has been chosen to lead a 120 million kroner EU project that aims to fight corruption in Ukraine.
The foreign minister, Kristian Jensen, will officially present the initiative in Kiev on Friday.
“Corruption is a substantial challenge in Ukraine – in the daily lives of both businesses and citizens. Corruption damages the growth potential in Ukraine and creates distrust among politicians and institutions,” said Jensen.
“This must be changed, and it requires political will and courage from the Ukrainian leadership. It is encouraging that the fight against corruption is a high priority for the government of Ukraine.”
