Swedish Foreign Minister Margot Wallström has urged Ukraine to accelerate reforms.

"Today 5 years ago the Maidan protests started in Kyiv. Further accelerated reforms would be the best way to honor those who died in pursuit of a better Ukraine. Sweden will continue to defend Ukraine's territorial integrity and actively support further reforms," she wrote on Twitter on November 21, 2018.

As UNIAN reported earlier, on November 21, Ukraine marked the fifth anniversary of Euromaidan events when pro-European activists staged rallies in Kyiv against the then President Viktor Yanukovych's regime.

Head of the Special Investigation Department of the Prosecutor General's Office of Ukraine Serhiy Horbatiuk said most of 4,700 crimes against Maidan activists, which were investigated by law enforcement agencies, had been solved already.
