Multiple violations of the use of budget funds led to multi-billion dollar damage to the state.
This is evidenced by the results of the audit of the Accounts Chamber of Ukraine for 2019.
The head of the department Valery Patskan said that experts have checked more than six hundred objects and over 763 billion hryvnias [28 billion dollars]. As it turned out, the volume of losses due to violations last year was almost 3 times higher than in 2018.
“If in 2018 we found violations of 17 billion hryvnia [$ 632 million], then in 2019 – by 49.76 billion hryvnia [1.85 billion],” the official said.
