Prime Minister Vladimir Groisman believes that the problem of corruption in Ukraine is exaggerated and used by enemies to destabilize the state. The head of government said this in an interview with the Georgian "Forbes", which he shared with Facebook. "Many of our enemies are interested in destabilizing Ukraine, and they always put forward the problem of corruption in our country. They constantly repeat that corruption is very common ... And I think that this is exaggerated, "said Groisman. In the opinion of the prime minister, this problem is covered in the most negative light, in order "to make Ukraine, together with its population of 40 million people look bad". In addition, Groisman noted that in a significant number of areas, corruption is allegedly already defeated. "The list of areas where corruption has flourished is obviously shrinking," he said.. In particular, among the sectors with completely destroyed corruption, the head of government called state purchases, sale of natural gas, purchase of medicines. Groisman named significant achievements in the fight against corruption as the launch of the Prozorro Internet procurement system, the decentralization of the budget, the equalization of the state and commercial rates for gas, the purchase of drugs through international organizations. Asked by the journalist about whether the prime minister really considers corruption defeated, Groisman replied that she remained in "law enforcement agencies, courts, authorities issuing permits and licenses, as well as in government agencies providing various services". However, he did not specify which services he had in mind. "Therefore, it is extremely important to ensure successful privatization. As part of the ongoing reforms last fall, we adopted the necessary legislation on privatization, "the head of the Cabinet.
