The Minister of Justice of Ukraine Denys Maliuska met with the Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Kingdom of Denmark to Ukraine Ole Egberg Mikkelsen.

Mr. Ambassador dwelled on the coordinated work of state institutions in Ukraine at such a difficult time for our country: people get married, newborn children are registered, registers are open.

The Minister of Justice confirmed that despite the existing problems, the system works and is managed. At the same time, during the war, the Government's priorities changed somewhat. Currently, the top priority for the Ministry of Justice is to create an appropriate legal basis to compensate for the damage caused to Ukraine by the russian invaders at the expense of rusdian assets in Ukraine and abroad. Currently, the relevant law has been adopted and signed by the President of Ukraine.

The Ministry is also working in synergy with the national experts and international lawyers to develop a concept for setting up a commission to compensate for the damage caused by the russian invasion of Ukraine.

The parties also discussed the work of the Freeze and Seize Task Force. It was noted that the project "Anti-Corruption Initiative of the European Union in Ukraine (EUACI) is also changing the priorities of its work in Ukraine and is ready to participate in the work of both the task force and the reconstruction of Ukraine.

The Ambassador of the Kingdom of Denmark added that his country has already supported the initiative of the President of Ukraine and will be honored to participate in the restoration of Mykolayiv.

At the same time, it was stressed that it is very important for Ukraine as a democratic European state not to lose achievements in the implementation of anti-corruption reform and the creation of a European-style judicial system.

The meeting was also attended by Artur Gebal, Head of the Political Session of the European Union Delegation to Ukraine, Pavlina Regor, Political Adviser to the European Union Delegation to Ukraine, and Iryna Shyba Deputy Head of the European Union Anti-Corruption Initiative in Ukraine (EUACI).
