"The National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) said on July 27 that it had charged a former top Foreign Ministry official with embezzling Hr 37 million ($1.28 million) in foreign
donations intended to support
Ukraine.
The funds were subsequently laundered by the official and his alleged accomplices, according to the bureau.
Specifically, the NABU charged Oleksandr Bankov, who served as the ministry’s state secretary from 2020 to 2024, and a former head of Bankov’s office who currently serves as a diplomat.
