New Criminal Law Definitions and Punishments Set to Impact Society

Criminal Justice

The Supreme Court's conclusion on trading in influence in Ukraine may lead to negative legal consequences by expanding the range of subjects of the crime. This could conflict with existing laws on corruption and may result in stricter liability for actions that may not be socially dangerous. The interpretation of the subject of trading in influence needs to align with the provisions of the Criminal Code of Ukraine to ensure correct application of the law.
