The National Agency on Corruption Prevention (NACP) sees remarks by Executive Director at Transparency International Ukraine Yaroslav Yurchyshyn as a distorted message, NACP has said in a statement.

“The National Agency on Corruption Prevention believes that remarks by Executive Director at Transparency International Ukraine Yaroslav Yurchyshyn on NACP are a message containing distorted information. Referring in his interview [with Ukrainian News on October 16] to the so-called ‘behind-the-scenes’ information, he provides evaluative and unconfirmed judgments that in no way can objectively characterize the situation at the National Agency on Corruption Prevention,” the statement says.
