The US Treasury Department says there are no signs of misuse of US funds in Ukraine — the representative of the United States Department of the Treasury, Megan Apper, in response to a Reuters request

However, the Treasury Department will continue to work closely with Ukrainian authorities to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place to avert corruption.

"We have no indication that U.S. funds have been misused in Ukraine. We welcome the ongoing efforts by the Ukrainian authorities to work with us to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place so that U.S assistance reaches those for whom it is intended," said Apper.

It was the Treasury's first comment on the issue after Ukraine's government last week dismissed a slew of senior officials in the country's biggest political shake-up of the war following corruption allegations.
