Розглянуто роль України в міжнародному співробітництві у сфері протидії наркозлочинності, а також проблеми інтеграції чинної національної системи
боротьби з наркоманією та пов’язаними з нею правопорушеннями до відповідних
структур Європейського Союзу.
The author of the article has studied the problem of increasing the extent of drug
abuse and illicit trafficking, which poses a serious threat to the health and well-being of
people and has a negative impact on the economic, cultural and political foundations of
the world order. It has been stressed that the problem of combating drug addiction and
related offenses can not be solved by means of unilateral actions at the national level.
Therefore, the author has considered the role of Ukraine in international cooperation,
as well as the integration of the current national system into the relevant structures of
the European Union. The author has highlighted the features of international cooperation
in counteracting drug crimes, which reside in the fact that the social danger of such
acts and their unlawfulness are determined in international treaties, the subjects of
which are the states. The obligation of the states is mainly to implement the punishment
for such acts into national law, giving each other the necessary legal assistance, including
the extradition of offenders. Consequently, the author has suggested concrete measures
aimed at fruitful and mutually beneficial cooperation with the EU, which will also
contribute to bringing the political, economic and social systems of Ukraine in line with
European criteria and will form the atmosphere of a single space.
Рассмотрена роль Украины в международном сотрудничестве в сфере
противодействия преступности, а также проблемы интеграции действующей
национальной системы борьбы с наркоманией и связанными с ней правонарушениями в соответствующие структуры Европейского Союза.
