The AntAC's Executive Director Daria Kaleniuk said that this could be a turning point for Ukraine's anti-corruption system.<\/p>\n<h2>A signal of change<\/h2>\n<p>Public participation of the Head of the Presidential Office <strong>Kirill Budanov<\/strong> at the Anti-Corruption Action Centre's event held today, 20 April 2026. The expert community viewed this step as an important signal of the government's readiness to transform its approach to fighting corruption.<\/p>\n<p>Executive Director of the AntAC <b>Daria Kaleniuk<\/b> stressed that the appearance of an official of this level on the anti-corruption platform is a positive indicator for the entire system. She noted that this could usher in a new era of transparency and legitimacy in public administration.<\/p>\n<h2>Statement by Budanov: \u00abManual control\u00bb and \u00abtelephone law\u00bb<\/h2>\n<p>During the conference, the head of the OP openly named the main reasons <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/suspilstvo\/in-odesi-dvirnyky-on-tesla-vykryto-skhemu-for-15-mln\/\">corruption abuses<\/a> in the country - \u00abmanual control\u00bb and \u00abtelephone law\u00bb. According to Kaleniuk, this rhetoric indicates an intention to move away from the old, informal methods of influencing state processes.<\/p>\n<p>She also stressed that the direct voicing of such problems by a government official is an unprecedented step that could be the impetus for real changes in the system.<\/p>\n<h2>Expectations of the expert community<\/h2>\n<p>Kaleniuk expressed hope that the presence of the high-ranking official at the anti-corruption event would be the beginning of gradual but real changes. According to her, the priority should be to implement <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/suspilstvo\/budanov-prozori-pravyla-znyshchat-koruptsiju\/\">transparent procedures<\/a> and compliance with the principle of legality.<\/p>\n<p>The expert stressed that such steps could be the \u00ablight at the end of the tunnel\u00bb for the anti-corruption system. She added that further actions of the authorities should confirm the declared intentions.<\/p>\n<h2>Context and future prospects<\/h2>\n<p>The visit of the head of the OP to the AntAC event took place against the backdrop of growing attention to anti-corruption policy in Ukraine. Experts emphasise that such signals need to be backed up by concrete steps and reforms.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u041e\u0447\u0456\u043b\u044c\u043d\u0438\u043a \u041e\u0444\u0456\u0441\u0443 \u041f\u0440\u0435\u0437\u0438\u0434\u0435\u043d\u0442\u0430 \u0432\u0456\u0434\u0432\u0456\u0434\u0430\u0432 \u0437\u0430\u0445\u0456\u0434 \u0426\u0435\u043d\u0442\u0440\u0443 \u043f\u0440\u043e\u0442\u0438\u0434\u0456\u0457 \u043a\u043e\u0440\u0443\u043f\u0446\u0456\u0457, \u0449\u043e \u0432\u0438\u043a\u043b\u0438\u043a\u0430\u043b\u043e \u0440\u0435\u0437\u043e\u043d\u0430\u043d\u0441 \u0441\u0435\u0440\u0435\u0434 \u0435\u043a\u0441\u043f\u0435\u0440\u0442\u0456\u0432. \u0412\u0438\u043a\u043e\u043d\u0430\u0432\u0447\u0430 \u0434\u0438\u0440\u0435\u043a\u0442\u043e\u0440\u043a\u0430 \u0426\u041f\u041a \u0414\u0430\u0440\u2019\u044f \u041a\u0430\u043b\u0435\u043d\u044e\u043a \u0437\u0430\u044f\u0432\u0438\u043b\u0430, \u0449\u043e \u0446\u0435 \u043c\u043e\u0436\u0435 \u0441\u0442\u0430\u0442\u0438 \u043f\u043e\u0432\u043e\u0440\u043e\u0442\u043d\u0438\u043c \u043c\u043e\u043c\u0435\u043d\u0442\u043e\u043c \u0434\u043b\u044f \u0430\u043d\u0442\u0438\u043a\u043e\u0440\u0443\u043f\u0446\u0456\u0439\u043d\u043e\u0457 \u0441\u0438\u0441\u0442\u0435\u043c\u0438 \u0423\u043a\u0440\u0430\u0457\u043d\u0438. \u0421\u0438\u0433\u043d\u0430\u043b \u043f\u0440\u043e \u0437\u043c\u0456\u043d\u0438 \u041f\u0443\u0431\u043b\u0456\u0447\u043d\u0430 \u0443\u0447\u0430\u0441\u0442\u044c \u043e\u0447\u0456\u043b\u044c\u043d\u0438\u043a\u0430 \u041e\u0444\u0456\u0441\u0443 \u041f\u0440\u0435\u0437\u0438\u0434\u0435\u043d\u0442\u0430 \u041a\u0438\u0440\u0438\u043b\u0430 \u0411\u0443\u0434\u0430\u043d\u043e\u0432\u0430 \u0443 \u0437\u0430\u0445\u043e\u0434\u0456 \u0426\u0435\u043d\u0442\u0440\u0443 \u043f\u0440\u043e\u0442\u0438\u0434\u0456\u0457 \u043a\u043e\u0440\u0443\u043f\u0446\u0456\u0457 \u0432\u0456\u0434\u0431\u0443\u043b\u0430\u0441\u044f \u0441\u044c\u043e\u0433\u043e\u0434\u043d\u0456, 20 \u043a\u0432\u0456\u0442\u043d\u044f 2026 \u0440\u043e\u043a\u0443. \u0415\u043a\u0441\u043f\u0435\u0440\u0442\u043d\u0430 \u0441\u043f\u0456\u043b\u044c\u043d\u043e\u0442\u0430 \u0440\u043e\u0437\u0446\u0456\u043d\u0438\u043b\u0430 \u0446\u0435\u0439 \u043a\u0440\u043e\u043a [\u2026]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":207433355,"featured_media":16455,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rank_math_title":"","rank_math_description":"\u0411\u0443\u0434\u0430\u043d\u043e\u0432 \u043e\u0433\u043e\u043b\u043e\u0441\u0438\u0432 \u043f\u0440\u043e \u043d\u043e\u0432\u0456 \u043f\u0456\u0434\u0445\u043e\u0434\u0438 \u0434\u043e \u0431\u043e\u0440\u043e\u0442\u044c\u0431\u0438 \u0437 \u043a\u043e\u0440\u0443\u043f\u0446\u0456\u0454\u044e \u0432 \u0423\u043a\u0440\u0430\u0457\u043d\u0456. \u0429\u043e \u0437\u043c\u0456\u043d\u0438\u0442\u044c\u0441\u044f \u0442\u0430 \u044f\u043a\u0438\u0445 \u0440\u0435\u0437\u0443\u043b\u044c\u0442\u0430\u0442\u0456\u0432 \u043e\u0447\u0456\u043a\u0443\u044e\u0442\u044c \u2014 \u0434\u0435\u0442\u0430\u043b\u0456.","rank_math_focus_keyword":"\u0411\u0443\u0434\u0430\u043d\u043e\u0432","td_subtitle":"","subtitle":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[806778],"tags":[806814],"class_list":{"0":"post-16456","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-suspilstvo","8":"tag-finansy"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16456","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/207433355"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16456"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16456\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16457,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16456\/revisions\/16457"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16455"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16456"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16456"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16456"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
