The EU's fight against corruption | DW Documentary
Laura Kövesi is leading the European Union's fight against corruption. Since becoming head of the European Public Prosecutor's Office in 2021, she’s launched a series of anti-fraud cases—and won.Criminals take advantage of legal loopholes to pocket the sales tax on sportscars and other luxury products. Some fraud schemes have far more serious - sometimes deadly - sequences. In February 2023, a head-on collision between two trains in Greece claimed the lives of 57 people. EU funds allocated to fit the railway signaling network with an alert system, which would likely have prevented the tragedy, had been misappropriated. The European Public Prosecutor's Office has since charged various individuals on counts of subsidy fraud.
Under Laura Kövesi's leadership, the EPPO has recovered millions of euros in the space of just a few years. At the same time, she says that "the trauma” and pain that the "families of the victims have cannot be solved without justice.” This film sheds light on the criminal strategies involved and how the EU's own prosecutors and national law enforcement agencies are teaming up to fight back.
