The Group of States of the Council of Europe Against Corruption (GRECO) recognized Ukraine’s progress in preventing corruption among deputies, judges, and prosecutors. The corresponding report assesses Ukraine’s progress it has achieved in the implementation of the recommendations on the prevention of corruption that were provided in 2017.
GRECO believes that Kyiv has made improvements, satisfactorily implementing 15 out of 31 recommendations. Nine of the remaining recommendations have been partially implemented, and seven more were not executed.
GRECO concluded that the recommendations’ implementation level is no longer “globally unsatisfactory”, as it was after the previous report published in April 2022.
Ukraine must submit another report on its work on the unfulfilled recommendations by March 31, 2024. As a result, GRECO approved the removal of Ukraine from its blacklist of states where anti-corruption is failing.
