În the executive activity, corruption has an effect the reduced quality of public administration, the existence of an informal decision-making system and close links between organized crime, corrupt officials and politicians. Outwardly of corruption effects, in international relations, is manifested by the conduct of incompetent, irresponsible, provocative and subjective – conventional behavior of persons in positions of responsibility which, in dealing with foreign partners, primarily promotes personal and corporate interests against national interests, which, inevitably, undermines the country's image and credibility as a partner in international relations.
