The professional community, including judges, experts, international partners, representatives of civil society, and the media gathered at the conference in Kyiv to discuss the results of the HACC activities over the past five years and further plans of the Court.
The EU Anti-Corruption Initiative (EUACI) together with our US colleagues, contributed to the establishment of the Court from August 2018.
The Head of the EUACI Allan Pagh Kristensen has emphasised that the HACC’s results are very significant: 207 verdicts, 106 prison sentences, 40 persons behind bars. All in high-level corruption cases.
“One thing is the numbers. Not less important is the fact that your work is being respected and you have managed to build trust in your institution. I believe the Court has become the best example of fair and just trials in Ukraine,” Allan Pagh Kristensen said at the conference “5 years of HACC: from idea to capacity.”
The event is held with the support of the EUACI.
