The United Kingdom will provide assistance to Ukraine in reforming the customs sector and the judicial system.

"We've agreed that the UK will consistently assist us in the reform of our customs system and the introduction of a parliamentary system of transparency," Ukraine's Foreign Minister Pavlo Klimkin said at a press conference in Kyiv on Wednesday.

UK Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs Boris Johnson, in turn, expressed his support for the reforms.

"We will contribute to the reform of the tax system, a few of our prominent experts, including tax attorneys, will work in Ukraine," he said.

Johnson said the parties also discussed the reform of the judiciary, providing the transparency and integrity of the parliament.
