According to hum, the Government must start its work by checking the functionality of the state institutions. There will be implemented a complex mechanism for selecting the head of the National Anticorruption Center by contest. “Not only the name counts. This institution should not lose its autonomy. I will not allow interfering in its work,” said the Premier, adding that the Center must treat corruption as s system problem.

As to the Eastern Partnership Summit of Vilnius, the Prime Minister said that the signals given by the European partners reveal that the European Commission shows greater openness.
