Currently, corruption is one of the global social phenomena. In most countries of the world, irrespective of the level of their development, corruption is an integral part of social systems and one of the most current problems. The European Union as a supranational organization with a significant share of political power in the world continuously advocates the suppression of corruption. In fact, it seeks to extend a unified approach to addressing global corruption issues, which is particularly favorable for small and developing countries with a high degree of corruption. Building strong institutions in the fight against corruption, as well as clear and rigorous legal norms, is one of the first steps on this road.
