In particular, he said that through the use of international databases, Ukrainian law enforcers significantly increased the effectiveness of their work in the search for criminals.

"During 2016, the location of 492 people was established, in 2017 - 178", - said Vasily Nevolya.

In addition, he added that, using the capabilities of Interpol, during 2016-2017, 118 people were extradited.

According to Vasily Nevoli, the strategic objective of the unit is to create the possibility of direct use of Interpol data banks for law enforcement officers throughout the country, including for the National Police of Ukraine.

"We must reach a situation where the next part, the operational staff and the patrol crew on the streets will also have access to the Interpol databases of the appropriate category," he said..

This system will reduce the time for inspections at the request of investigators and operatives. In addition, Interpol databases will help to prevent, disclose and investigate crimes.

"This approach is the generally accepted European and world standard of police work, and we must implement it in Ukraine," said the head of the Department of Interpol and Europol.
