The main purpose of the meeting was to inform international partners about the ongoing efforts of Ukraine's anti-corruption agencies, particularly in light of the SAPO's expanded operational independence, and to discuss the challenges faced by the anti-corruption agencies.

The parties emphasized the importance of a joint approach to ensuring transparency and accountability in public administration. In this context, the prospect of Ukraine's accession to the OECD Anti-Bribery Convention, which is an effective international mechanism, remains important.

The ambassadors praised the efforts of the Ukrainian side and reaffirmed their strong support for Ukraine's anti-corruption agenda.

We believe that this is a key element in intensifying the process of European integration, as well as a guarantee of the state's stability in the face of ongoing Russian aggression. We are grateful to our international partners for their consistent support.
