Abstract
This scientific article provides a systematic analysis of the international legal foundations of cooperation in the fight against crime. In the article, the author tried to highlight the theoretical aspects of the issue of international cooperation of law enforcement agencies in the system of combating crime. It also analyzes the content and essence of the concepts of “international criminal group” and “international criminal community”, which are considered relevant today. The author’s comparative analysis on international conventions, declarations and legislation of foreign countries reflected the specifics of this article. Moreover, the relevance of the research topic is because the commission of such crimes is characterized by the use of modern technical means and high-tech facilities of air and land transport, a high transcontinental level of organization and real support of many, including illegal, financial sources. The predicted result of such activities was a significant increase in the number of serious crimes of a transnational nature. The lack of proper legal cooperation between states leads to the emergence and spread of dangerous practices when criminals, committing a crime in one state, illegally cross the borders of another in order to avoid the administration of justice and prosecution. The problem of disclosing, investigating and preventing such crimes within the framework of international cooperation in criminal matters is the most urgent today.
