Item Ensuring Gender-competent Responses to Conflict-related Male Sexual Violence in Russia’s Aggression against Ukraine(2025) Busol, KaterynaThis article examines how international criminal law and wider redress measures can help Ukraine aptly pursue conflict-related male sexual violence (CRMSV) perpetrated during Russia’s ongoing aggression. The piece explores CRMSV committed during the Russia–Ukraine armed conflict and analyses how Ukraine should address these atrocities in a gendered and intersectional manner, in criminal proceedings as well as in wider transitional justice. The article first traces international law prohibitions of CRMSV, comparing them with the prohibitions of conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV) against females. It further explores how CRMSV has been addressed in international criminal jurisprudence and concludes that while CRMSV has been increasingly prosecuted globally, attention to its varied sexual dimensions has been uneven. The analysis then traces the dynamics and spectrum of CRMSV since the beginning of Russia’s aggression in 2014 and discusses how CRMSV has transformed since the full-scale invasion in 2022. The article assesses the suitability of Ukraine’s legal framework and expertise to consider CRMSV and examines ways forward for more gender-competent accountability and reparations. The analysis concludes that the way Ukraine addresses CRSV perpetrated against different individuals, including heterosexual and gay men and boys, expands the room for nuanced inclusion and equality transformations within Ukrainian society, which are crucial for the nation’s post-conflict recovery.Item Зелений і безпечний Європейський Союз : монографія(Вежа-Друк, 2024) Бояр, Андрій; Лажнік, Володимир; Романюк, Наталія; Петров, Роман; Вознюк, Є.; Гавришева, О.; Деделюк, К.; Демчук, А.; Ільницька, Н.; Ільницький, Д.; Кицюк, І.; Коломечюк, В.; Кулик, С.; Кухарик, В.; Матвійчук, Н.; Моренчук, А.; Панас, В.; Патійчук, В.; Пікулик, О.; Скороход, І.; Стащук, О.; Столярчук, Я.; Стрельцов, В.; Федірко, О.; Федонюк, С.; Фіщук, І.; Цьось, А.; Чужиков, А.; Чужиков, В.; Шуляк, А.; Щербата, Н.; Могілевська, І.У монографії розкриваються передумови, чинники та етапи розвитку Європейського Союзу (ЄС) як міжнародного інтеграційного угруповання держав.

Монографію підготовлено в рамках проєкту "Центр досконалості Жана Моне "Волинський центр європейських студій: зелене та безпечне сусідство" програми Європейського Союзу ERASMUS+» (№ 101085647 – VCES – ERASMUS-JMO-2022- HEI-TCH-RSCH).Item Правова система Європейського Союзу: джерела та загальні принципи(2024) Петров, Роман; Бояр, Андрій; Лажнік, ВолодимирРозділ 2. з монографії "Зелений і безпечний Європейський Союз", у якому йдеться про правову система Європейського Союзу після набрання чинності Лісабонського договору 1 грудня 2009 р. Право ЄС повністю інтегроване в правові системи держав-членів. Здебільшого його норми мають пряму дію та верховенство над національним законодавством держав-членів. Складником правової системи Союзу стали спільні цінності (EU common values), які мають вирішальне значення для забезпечення його функціонування як правової спільноти. Вони не лише загальний орієнтир для діяльності, а й унормовують поведінку ЄС як суб’єкта права.Item European Integration, and Democracy and Human Rights Reforms in Ukraine in the Wartime(2025) Shyrokykh, Karina; Busol, Kateryna; Koval, DmytroIn this chapter, we explore the process of European integration and reforms, both of which gained momentum amidst the war, while also investigating their inter-relationship. We ask: To what extent, how, and why does the EU integration accelerate reforms in Ukraine amidst the war? To address these questions, we examine the progress made in the policy areas of justice, anti-corruption, and gender equality, which have been the focus of long-standing EU-promoted reforms. We address these policy areas as notable achievements have taken place in these domains in the first year and a half of full-scale Russian aggression. Reforms in these policy areas for long have been the least likely to take place as they faced systematic resistance in Ukraine due to different reasons, which we discuss below. We explain how Russia’s full-scale invasion has become a catalyst of important transformations in Ukraine and what the role of European integration has played in the process of reforms.Item Training on methods for the implementation of the Regulation (EU) 2017/1938 on Security of Gas Supply and other related Regulations, Vienna, 24-25 April 2023(Publications Office of the European Union, 2023) Fernandez Blanco Carramolino, Ricardo; Zaccarelli, Nicola; Farmer, R.; Prokofiev, A.; Badanova, Ielyzaveta; Rodríguez Gómez, N.; Bolado Lavín, RicardoThe Directorate C for Energy, Mobility and Climate of the European Commission Joint Research Centre (JRC) have organised together with the Energy Community a comprehensive training on "Methods for the implementation of the Regulation (EU) 2017/1938 on Security of Gas Supply and other related Regulations”" This training was held in Vienna, Austria, on 24-25 April 2023.

It includes an analysis of the applicable international law and policy frameworks and the practice of key international actors in Ukraine, as well as in past conflicts. It concludes with a set of specific recommendations to the EU and its Member States to strengthen the protection of cultural heritage from the effects of armed conflicts, now and in the future.Item Ukraine's Pursuit of Justice Hinders Peace(Chatham House, 2023) Busol, KaterynaMany believe that for Ukraine to insist on judicial redress is unrealistic and should not be a precondition of a peace settlement. However, quite apart from the moral imperative, the reality is that peace will not hold unless justice – in the form of trials and reparations – is served.Item Russian Aggression and Individual Reparations: Victims' Needs and Ways to Address Them Under International Law(2023) Busol, KaterynaThis article analyzes Ukraine’s progress in ensuring prosecution for breach of laws and customs of war and international crimes committed during russian aggression. A special prism of the research is the dynamics of Ukraine’s success in organizing reparations programs to support the victims. First, detailed key obligations of Ukraine and russia and the requirements of international law to provide effective remedies to victims, in particular, in the context of transitional justice, are disclosed. The gradual expansion of the focus of the Ukrainian authorities and the human rights community on criminal justice to more comprehensive support for different groups of victims is considered. Ukraine needs to urgently develop the whole spectrum of reparation measures without focusing only on compensation. This publication also explains why more reparations should be provided through a simplified administrative procedure rather than a judicial one, why Ukraine should provide urgent interim reparations as soon as possible, and why the voice of victims and a sensitive gender prism are key at all stages of these processes.Item The Impact of the Russian Invasion of Ukraine on Its Accession to the EU(2023) Petrov, RomanThe Russian invasion of Ukraine on 24 February 2022 posed an existential challenge for Ukraine and the EU. On the one hand, it tested the EU’s resilience and political autonomy. On the other, it called into question the existence and territorial sovereignty of Ukraine—a country deeply committed to EU integration, having already sacrificed part of its territory and the lives of thousands of its citizens for the right to sign the EU-Ukraine Association Agreement in 2014. Nevertheless, the EU and its Member States remained reluctant to even acknowledge the prospect of Ukraine’s EU membership.Item Response to COVID-19 in Ukraine: Legal Pragmatism or Constitutional Outbreak?(2020) Petrov, Roman; Bernatskyi, BohdanSince March 2020 the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine (Parliament of Ukraine) joined the global fight against COVID-19.

Challenges and Successes(2019) Petrov, RomanThis article focuses on challenges and successes of the implementation and application of the EU-Ukraine Association Agreement, which triggered unprecedented political, economic and legal reforms in Ukraine. This article focuses on the constitutional challenges that have arisen for Ukraine in the course of implementing the Association Agreement into its legal system. Two issues form the core of the paper. The first issue is effective implementation and application of the Association Agreement within the Ukrainian legal order. The second issue is compatibility between the Association Agreement and the Ukrainian Constitution. The latest political and legal developments in Ukraine are analyzed through the prism of effective implementation of the Association Agreement and the rise of pro-European judicial activism in Ukraine. In conclusion it is argued that the EU-Ukraine Association Agreement enhanced the adaptability of the national constitutional order to the European integration project and European common values.Item The EU Ukraine Association Agreement and EU Common Values: One or Two Ways Dialogue?(2019) Petrov, RomanThis article analyses the Association Agreement (AA) between the EU and Ukraine.

The article studies substantive and procedural means of promotion and protection of EU values in the AA. The article scrutinises objectives, institutional framework and mechanisms of enhanced conditionality and legislative approximation in the AA. In addition, means to protect EU values (the EU’s response to security conflicts in Ukraine) are discussed.Item Abschuss der MH-17: Stand der internationalen Untersuchungen und beginnender Strafprozess in Den Haag(2020) Koval, DmytroDer Beitrag zeichnet kurz die Geschichte des Absturzes von Flug MH-17 der Malaysia Airlines nach.

З осені 1991 р. і особливо після референдуму 1 грудня 1991 р. за два роки 1991-1992 Україна уклала 35 міждержавних та 88 міжурядових угод. Нині половина законів, прийнятих Верховною Радою України – це закони про ратифікацію міжнародних договорів.
