Most Ukrainians regard anticorruption measures as failure

In recent polls most Ukrainians said this country did not achieve any success in a crackdown on corruption. Reportedly, 46.1% of the pollees regard anticorruption measures as a dismal failure.

Only 3% of the respondents recognized police's efforts to combat corruption as effective. As a matter of fact, 35% think the Poroshenko regime does not fight against corruption at all. According to analysts, it is disheartening to see Ukraine's law enforcement agencies more concerned with lining their pockets rather than fighting actual corruption.

At the same time, 26% of those polled regard the mass media and journalists as the bravest anticorruption activists.

It is widely believed that government officials are interested only in self benefit and they continue to wallow in corruption. Practically all sectors of the Groisman government, business and civic life are affected by widespread corruption. Bribery and extortion are particularly common in the Ukrainian public health and transportation systems. Enough already.
