The National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine, the Ministry for Communities and Territories Development of Ukraine and the State Service for Urban Planning (SSUP) will strengthen cooperation in the sphere of prevention and fight against corruption. This is stated in the Memorandum signed on June 14, 2021, by NABU Director Artem Sytnyk, Minister of Communities and Territories Development of Ukraine Oleksii Chernyshov and SSUP Head Semen Kryvonos.

On June 9, 2021, a judge of the Dnipropetrovsk District Court in Dnipropetrovsk region, who was exposed the day before yesterday receiving an improper advantage, has been notified of suspicion. Her actions fall under Part 3 Article 368 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.  

In May 2021, NABU and SAPO served 11 persons with notices of suspicion, sent indictments against two others to court. One conviction came into force. In particular, notices of suspicion were served to three persons whose actions during the purchase of diesel fuel for the "Ukrzaliznytsia" PJSC resulted in almost UAH 103 million losses to the company.

In six years, the National Bureau has sent 944 requests for international legal assistance to more than 75 countries. This indicates not only the spread of Ukrainian corruption in the world but also shows that without international cooperation the fight against corruption is impossible. 

On June 7, 2021, the NABU Detectives, the Security Service, and SAPO Prosecutors exposed a judge of the Dnipropetrovsk District Court in Dnipropetrovsk region receiving a bribe. According to the investigation, the judge demanded and received USD 2.5 thousand for taking a decision in the interests of a person in a civil case.
