📖 О международном антикоррупционном сотрудничестве

🇷🇺 Российская Федерация последовательно выступает за укрепление сотрудничества государств в деле противодействия коррупции при центральной координирующей роли ООН и на основе Конвенции ООН против коррупции.
Значительное внимание уделяется обеспечению российского участия в Антикоррупционной рабочей группе «Группы двадцати». Последний ежегодный доклад о прогрессе #G20 был сфокусирован на вопросах противодействия коррупции на таможне и в спорте.
Перспективным является антикоррупционный формат #БРИКС, позволяющий координировать там подходы «пятёрки» к наиболее значимым вопросам международного антикоррупционного сотрудничества, а также оказывать поддержку инициативам партнёров на различных международных площадках. В числе приоритетных пунктов повестки дня объединения – противодействие бегству коррупционеров от правосудия и сокрытию их капиталов.
Российская Федерация также входит в Межгосударственный совет по противодействию коррупции в рамках #СНГ, состоит в Группе по борьбе с коррупцией и обеспечению транспарентности #АТЭС, является участницей ряда профильных международных соглашений.
Значительное внимание уделяется антикоррупционному образованию. Россия ведет профильные проекты с Управлением ООН по наркотикам и преступности и Международной антикоррупционной академией. В последние годы реализовано большое количество обучающих инициатив совместно с партнёрами по БРИКС.

Russia confirmed its support of the Indian presidency in the G20 and analysed the destructive impact of the illegitimate sanctions on international development prospects, as well as on food and energy security.
The Minister shared his view of the Western states’ pressure on the developing countries in the attempts to involve them in certain formats “of mutual interest,” reckless plans of global settlement according to Western templates, boosting the delivery of weapons to the Kiev regime, extending the armed conflict in Ukraine and isolating Russia.
