Corruption crimes are among the most dangerous crimes at the national and international levels, in addition to their terrible spread quickly. In order to address them, we address in this research a statement of the definition of corruption, its forms and characteristics, the reasons that led to its spread, its types and its destructive effects on the social, economic, legal and political levels, and the extent of the impact of corruption crimes on international relations, which was indicated by the United Nations Convention of 2003 AD and the Arab Convention of 2010 AD, and the research touched on the most important international mechanisms in combating corruption through international treaties and intergovernmental organizations such as the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank, or non-governmental organizations such as Transparency International. In this research, we will discuss at the international level the experience of the United States of America in combating corruption. As for the Arab level, we reviewed the Saudi experience, then we dealt with combating this crime in Iraq. The research ended with a conclusion, conclusions, and recommendations.
