Saudi Arabia, UN sign agreement to boost anti-corruption expertise

Saudi Arabia and the United Nations have signed an agreement in Vienna to enhance anti-corruption expertise and capacity in the kingdom from 2027 to 2029, officials announced today. The deal was brokered by Nazaha chief Mazin Al-Kahmous and UNODC head Monica Gouma at a ceremony at UN headquarters in the Austrian capital. The official statement said the accord aims to bolster institutional capacity in integrity and anti-corruption, cultivate expertise in related domains, and foster closer collaboration via specialized initiatives, all designed to thwart and address corruption.

This pact bolsters the strategic bond between Saudi Arabia, via Nazaha, and the UN, via UNODC, under the memorandum of understanding inked jointly in 2018.
