TRANSPARENCY INTERNATIONAL 2014

We are #136

Tehran - 2014

TRANSPARENCY INTERNATIONAL STATES THAT

RUSSIA'S PLACE IN THE CPI REMAINS UNCHANGED BECAUSE OF:

corruption case stagnate (Daimler, Hewlett-Packard Company, Medical Bio-Rad Lab)

international anti-corruption cooperation stalled (fled abroad functionners enjoy illegal capital)

declaration of conflict of interest does not work

pressure on non-profit organizations and independent media

large projects are opaque

OUR VISION:

› how supportive their home countries are?

› it takes time when respect international law and procedures

› young institution

› every country is very cautious

› they are so open that none of them are done without foreign partnerships
