The President of the Supreme Court Stanislav Kravchenko met with the President of the Supreme Court of the Netherlands within the framework of the expansion of international cooperation

At a meeting with the President of the Supreme Court of the Netherlands, Dineke de Groot, Stanislav Kravchenko thanked the government and people of the Netherlands for their support to Ukraine and its citizens affected by the war.

The President of the Supreme Court emphasized Ukraine's continuous efforts to improve its judicial system so that the whole world perceived our country as a democratic one, strictly adhering to the rule of law. In addition, Ukraine is undergoing a series of reforms related to the European integration process. Therefore, the opportunity for Ukrainian judges to learn from the experience of their Dutch colleagues is extremely valuable.

Dineke de Groot noted that currently, in times of war, it was very important that Ukrainian judges felt reliable support from their European colleagues. In addition, such cooperation is an effective mechanism for strengthening the rule of law and legal certainty and improving the efficiency of the judiciary in Ukraine. Dineke de Groot also assured that the Supreme Court of the Netherlands was ready to establish a dialogue with Ukrainian colleagues and to share its own experience, which will help the judicial system of Ukraine to improve the organization of effective judicial proceedings.

Stanislav Kravchenko expressed his hope for further fruitful cooperation between the Supreme Courts of Ukraine and the Netherlands and thanked Esther de Rooij, Leader of the Dutch-Ukrainian project "Justice and Society in Ukraine" and Deputy President of the District Court of Amsterdam, for the initiative to hold the meeting and the support provided within the project. One of its focuses is the introduction of rules for the organization of effective judicial proceedings that streamline the court's internal processes.
