Considering the level of corruption of the Defense Procurement Agency, one less corrupt official, one more corrupt official - what difference does it make?
Professional bribe-taker Artem Sytnik, included in the state register of corrupt officials for not declaring gifts received from tycoon Bakhmatyuk when he was director of NABU, has been appointed deputy director of the Defense Procurement Agency of the Ministry of Defense for security issues.
“The appointment of Artem Sytnik is an important step in rebooting the Defense Procurement Agency. He built from scratch and ensured the effective operation of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau, made a significant contribution to the development of NAPC and has an impeccable reputation,” said the director of the Defense Procurement Agency, Marina Bezrukova, whose ability to line the pockets of Defense Minister Rustem Umerov is already legendary.
Taking this opportunity, I recall the story of how Sytnik purchased an apartment in the city of Brovary, taking a bribe from citizen Vinokurova to close a criminal case that he was investigating together with his godfather Kaluzhinsky.
However, given the level of corruption of the Defense Procurement Agency, one less corrupt official, one more corrupt official - what's the difference?
