The US will monitor the use of aid provided to Ukraine to fight against the Russian aggressor. Serhiy Kozyakov told who was part of the working group in an article for ZN.UA “Investigators and auditors of the “Powerful Three” against Ukrainian corruption”.

“For further actions, an Interdepartmental Working Group on Oversight in Ukraine has been created, which consists of the offices of three inspectors general (the Ministry of Defense, the State Department and USAID – the “powerful three”), as well as other inspectors general of oversight organizations throughout the US government,” Kozyakov writes.

“Critically, this list also includes 17 intelligence organizations, defined by the term “US Intelligence Community,'' whose mission is to gather information and conduct intelligence activities in the interest of the United States “, Kozyakov added.

He also noted that the Criminal Investigation Service of the “Powerful Three” cooperates with military criminal and investigative organizations, other federal law enforcement partners and the US Department of Justice, as well as international law enforcement partners on investigative actions related to Ukraine.

“The Power Three agencies and the Government Accountability Office received an additional $42 million for activities related to the oversight of general appropriations for the response in Ukraine by a decision of Congress,” Kozyakov concluded.
