The President of the Supreme Court Valentyna Danishevska met with the Director of the Ukrainian-Canadian Support to Judicial Reform Project Lubomyr Markevych. The meeting was also attended by the Head of the Division of International and Legal Cooperation Lina Hubar.

During the meeting, the parties discussed the preliminary results of cooperation in the framework of the Project, which ends in November this year.
