WILDWOOD CREST, N.J. – The 24th anniversary of Ukraine’s renewed independence was commemorated on the beach at 1 p.m. on Friday, August 28. Although many Ukrainians vacation in Wildwood Crest for all of “Ukrainian Week,” their numbers swell during the latter part of the week, prompting the organizers to postpone the commemoration to maximize attendance. Michael Koziupa, president of the Morris County chapter of the Ukrainian Congress Committee of America, president of the Newark chapter of the Organization for the Defense of Four Freedoms for Ukraine and first vice-president of the Ukrainian National Association, welcomed the large crowd and spoke briefly about Ukraine’s independence and the current political situation, after which everyone sang “Shche ne Vmerla Ukraina.”

Aid not making dents in Ukraine’s anti-corruption effort, says EU auditor<h5>Findings come ahead of annual high-level summit in Kyiv</h5>
KYIV – An independent report by the European Union’s (EU) independent outside auditor of finances said the 27-member state body’s reform assistance to Ukraine has proven ineffective “in fighting grand corruption” and establishing the rule of law. The damning report, published on September 23 by the European Court of Auditors (ECA), stated that the 12.2 billion euros in various forms of assistance and loan guarantees provided to Ukraine since 2014 have “not delivered the expected results.”
