"It is an obstacle - the inability of the General Prosecutor’s office to successfully fight internal corruption. Instead of supporting reforms in Ukraine and working towards the eradication of corruption, corrupted official pests worsen the situation, openly and aggressively undermining reforms", stated US Ambassador to Ukraine Geoffrey R. Pyatt during his speech at Odesa Financial Forum.
Pyatt noted, that the prosecutor's office system resists the will of Ukrainian leaders to change the country and expressed his support for Deputies Prosecutor General David Sakvarelidze and Vitaliy Kasko.
The US has provided $ 2 million for reforms in the Ukrainian Prosecutor's Office and fighting corruption in this structure, said Pyatt.
