Austrian Ambassador to Ukraine Hermine Poppeller has called for enhanced cooperation between the two countries on recovery of the assets stolen by ex-officials of Yanukovych regime. 

This is reported by the press service of the Prosecutor General’s Office of Ukraine.

"The image of the Republic of Austria and Ukraine is negatively affected by the fact that ex-officials of Yanukovych regime own assets obtained by criminal means. It is, therefore, necessary to strengthen cooperation between our two countries," Poppeller said during the meeting with Deputy Prosecutor General of Ukraine Yevhen Yenin.

The Austrian Ambassador thanked the Ukrainian side for information about the activities of the Prosecutor General’s Office of Ukraine and assured the meeting participants of support of the Republic of Austria on the way of reforming the agency and improving the effectiveness of bilateral cooperation in the field of criminal justice to combat international crime.
