Corruption is a very dangerous phenomenon that leads to the collapse of states and societies, increases poverty and inequality. It is a disease that gnaws at state institutions, tears them apart, widens the gap between the citizen and the government, threatens political and social stability, and weakens social peace. To address this problem, we must provide mechanisms to combat corruption based on the application of the law, the promotion of transparency and international cooperation at the global level, and educating society and raising its awareness of the dangers of corruption.
