US Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch said this at a meeting with Ukrainian journalists in Lvov, writes the Den newspaper, answering the question whether she agrees with the statement that Ukrainian corruption is a cancer that is “worse than Russian aggression in eastern Ukraine.” .
First, the diplomat began to talk in general terms about the importance of the fight against corruption, saying that work in this direction needs to be continued, and then touched upon the topic of the conflict in Donbass.
“I didn't answer the first part of your question. The war in Donbass is extremely important, and it is a war that Ukraine must win. This is not even a question, since we are talking about territorial integrity and sovereignty,” Yovanovitch said.
At the same time, she added that if there is no greater transparency in Ukraine, then “the country will continue to be under the influence of Russia.”
