Kyiv • UNN
The new Prosecutor General Kravchenko seeks to restore the parliament's trust in the Prosecutor's Office. He promises transparency, public reporting and no pressure on prosecutors and business.
Ruslan Kravchenko aims to restore the parliament's trust in the prosecution authorities as the Prosecutor General. Among his priorities is a substantive and responsible communication with the Rada, as well as public reporting on the results of work, UNN reports.
Real results are possible with effective cooperation with the Verkhovna Rada, we must restore the parliament's trust in the prosecution authorities. One of the priorities is regular, substantive and responsible communication with the Verkhovna Rada, committees that exercise parliamentary control, as well as public reporting on the results of work. I am sure that we have serious work ahead to improve legislation
According to him, no less important is the external dimension – the reputation of the prosecutor's office both inside the country and abroad, among international partners and in the media. Constant communication with society should become another norm of the prosecutor's office. Among the important issues is preventing pressure on business and the media.
In addition, Kravchenko assured that he would not allow illegal pressure on prosecutors.
As for me personally, I do not bend and do not break. Therefore, I advise everyone not to waste time and forget about pressure. I represent not a political force, but the Law – and I am convinced that the prosecutor's office should remain outside any political influence. I will act exclusively within the Constitution and laws of Ukraine. By the way, I have no relatives in the prosecution authorities and, I assure you, they will not appear there
Kravchenko believes that an honest prosecutor's office, effective parliamentary control, coordination and trust between institutions are the basis of justice in our state.
Justice does not look for convenient solutions, it requires courage, honesty and truth, despite any pressure. Someone in the session hall chose to turn their back on me – I will not do this. Because truth and justice are voiced in the eyes, not in the back
