Criminal legal problems of struggle with the legalization of criminal proceeds in the Republic of Kazakhstan
The scientific article examines the criminal legal aspects of combating the legalization (laundering) of money and (or) other property obtained by criminal means in the Republic of Kazakhstan. As you know, criminal proceeds create the material basis for committing new crimes, contribute to the growth of the shadow economy, the withdrawal of capital, an increase in the level of corruption, and, promoting a criminal lifestyle and therefore suppressing the possibility of money laundering is a necessary condition for combating crime. This circumstance, in turn, is the most important factor in the economic, political, and social stability of the state. According to the authors of the article, in the regulatory framework and in the law enforcement activities of the country’s government bodies in the field of combating money laundering, there are some problems in legal regulation and in the practical activities of law enforcement agencies. The authors of the article identified existing problems in legal regulation and law enforcement activities in the field of combating money laundering, mainly in the criminal legal sphere, and ways to solve them are proposed.

The subject of the study is the dependencies, trends and key features of the turnover of cryptocurrencies as a separate phenomenon. The purpose of the study is to analyze the key features of the cryptocurrency turnover and the problems of their legal regulation, followed by the development of practical proposals for the prevention of cryptocurrency crime. The objectives of the research are: analysis of modern technologies related to cryptocurrencies; their features and degree of influence on financial markets; problems of prevention and legal regulation of cryptocurrencies in Russia. The object of research is formed by public relations related to the use of cryptocurrencies in the financial market. Cryptocurrencies represent one of the most significant phenomena in financial technology. In the context of globalization and digitalization, they provide new opportunities for transactions, investments and storage of funds. However, the rise of decentralized finance, anonymous wallets, and NFT scams has turned blockchain into a "new shadow" of the global economy. This confirms the importance of developing new techniques and means of preventive activities of law enforcement agencies. The methodological basis of the work is the method of dialectical cognition, thanks to which it was possible to study the object and subject of research in relation to the domestic criminal legislation and other normative legal acts. The theoretical and methodological basis of the research is various logical techniques and means of scientific knowledge, general scientific and private scientific methods: modeling, forecasting, formal legal. The novelty of the study is due to the analysis of modern official statistical data and materials of investigative and judicial practice on the state of cryptocurrency crime in Russia. The study of domestic legal acts in the field of the use of financial assets allowed us to conclude that the status of cryptocurrencies is uncertain. The authors summarize that cryptocurrency crime does not require prohibitions, but a rethinking of law, because it is not technology that poses a threat, but its exploitation in conditions of legal inequality. The main conclusions obtained by the authors relate to determining the financial characteristics of cryptocurrencies, their volatility, liquidity, and risk assessment of use. The trend of increasing demand for the integration of cryptocurrencies into traditional financial systems has been proven. The problems of legal regulation and regulatory consolidation of the concept of "cryptocurrency", including in domestic criminal legislation, are outlined. The main reasons for the spread of cryptocurrency crime and the prospects for preventive activities of investigative authorities based on the capabilities of artificial intelligence have been identified.

It is emphasized that domestic law enforcement agencies occupy a central place in the implementation of law enforcement activities. With the aim of researching the legal perspective ways of improving the administrative and legal support of the activities of law enforcement agencies, the author carried out an analysis of law enforcement activities, including the violation by law enforcement agencies and their officials of the rights and freedoms of people and citizens, the norms of current domestic and international legislation, as well as various circles scientists who in their writings explored the prospects for improving the activities of law enforcement agencies of Ukraine. It is emphasized that as a result of the military aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, the introduction of the martial law regime and the associated socio-economic crisis, the unequal approach to the regulatory and legal regulation of the status and the organizational and legal support of the activities of law enforcement agencies, along with other factors, have a negative impact on protection of the rights and freedoms of citizens, the fight against crime and the security of the state, which in turn puts forward demands for ways to improve the activity of law enforcement agencies of Ukraine under the introduction of the martial law regime. Attention is drawn to the fact that many domestic jurists have researched the problematic issues of law enforcement agencies. The works of individual legal scientists who studied the activities of domestic and foreign law enforcement agencies and who proposed various ways to improve the activities of domestic law enforcement agencies are briefly presented. Based on the analysis of scientific works, it was established that the majority of scientists are concerned about the current state of law enforcement agencies and point to the need to build a model of a law enforcement agency system that would be able to ensure the rights and freedoms of people and citizens guaranteed by the Constitution and laws of Ukraine. It was concluded that the considered issues lead to the formation of an effective legal mechanism for improving the administrative and legal support of the activities of law enforcement agencies of Ukraine, and specific proposals for improving their activities are offered.

The purpose of the article was to determine the specific features of public control over the activities of certain law enforcement agencies and to develop suggestions for their improvement. The methodological basis of the research is general scientific (method of philosophical dialectics, etc.) and special legal methods of cognition (systemic, theoretical and legal, formal and dogmatic, comparative, state modeling method, etc.) The authors have developed their own definition of the concept of public control over the activities of law enforcement agencies. In the conclusions it has been offered to develop and approve the Law of Ukraine «On public control over the activities of law enforcement and supervisory bodies», which would systematize all forms of public control provided for in the Ukrainian legislation. Finally, suggestions have been developed for the introduction of positive international experiences of public control over the activities of law enforcement agencies in various countries.

The article is devoted to the study of the state of public oversight over the activities of law enforcement agencies in Ukraine. The analysis of current national legislation is carried out, and deficiencies in legal regulation that hinder the effective implementation of public oversight are identified. It is stated that Ukraine currently lacks a normative legal act that clearly regulates the mechanism for exercising public oversight over the activities of law enforcement agencies, which complicates the practical implementation of such oversight. Attempts by parliamentarians to adopt a separate document on the matter have failed, while contemporary challenges, including the introduction of martial law, create additional obstacles to the exercise of public oversight over law enforcement agencies in Ukraine. The authors substantiate the necessity of adopting a separate normative legal act on public oversight of law enforcement agencies, specifically a law titled “On Public Oversight of the Activities of Law Enforcement Agencies of Ukraine”, which would define clear procedures enabling civil society actors to monitor the activities of law enforcement officers. The authors emphasize that the proposed law should outline mechanisms for exercising public oversight under martial law conditions and identify funding sources for such activities. Proposals are made to establish independent agencies tasked with overseeing the activities of law enforcement agencies, including the police, prosecution, and other bodies engaged in law enforcement. These agencies would aim to identify potential abuses, unlawful benefits, and human rights violations. They should be empowered to accept and review citizen complaints against law enforcement actions, investigate cases of misconduct or improper performance of duties, and develop recommendations for improving law enforcement practices, including changes to policies, procedures, and staff training. The authors note that many citizens are unaware of their rights and the opportunities and mechanisms for overseeing law enforcement activities. In this regard, the importance of conducting information campaigns to raise public awareness about public oversight of law enforcement agencies is substantiated.

Introduction. The theoretical and practical importance of the contractual legal relationships, the specifics of their legal regulation in the present-day conditions imply a contract to be a driver of the dynamic processes of commodity exchange. Therefore, due to involvement of the increasing number of objects into the civil circulation and fostering freedom of competition, the role of a contract is also growing. At the same time, in recent times the special attention in the national Civil Law is being paid to creation of the legal construct ensuring development of the gratuitous relationships. In this regard, a gratuitous contract category and, in particular, a gift agreement category are of considerable interest. One of the objectives of today’s Civil Law is creation of the legal construct ensuring development of the above-mentioned gratuitous relationships. The Civil Code of the Russian Federation (hereinafter referred to as the Civil Code of the RF), although traditionally stipulating the certain types of gratuitous contracts, still leaves unsolved a number of issues: systematisation of gratuitous obligations, type composition, socially beneficial goals, etc. In the current legislation, the legal constructs of technical and humanitarian aid contracts are stipulated in the ambiguous way. The relationships comprising the element of gratuitousness related to charity, donation, patronage, grants, etc. need a clear legislative regulation. Meanwhile, the legal regulation of the gratuitous contacts in the current economic situation falls considerably behind the present day demands. Therefore, understanding the essence and legal nature of a gift agreement and its place in the present-day Civil Law of Russia is of particular interest. The aim of this study is to identify the most topical problems of the gift agreement legal regulation in the national legislation and difficulties in application practices thereof.Materials and Methods. The legal regulation designated for drawing up the gratuitous contracts was analysed, whereas the gift agreements among them were of particular interest. During the research, a combination of general and specific scientific methods of cognizing the legal reality were applied. The methods of analysis and synthesis, comparative legal analysis, as well as the dialectical method were used for writing the article, which made it possible to ensure the comprehensive study of the material under analysis, internal integrity of the study, as well as credibility and consistency of the research provisions.Results. It has been proved that the institution of gift-giving is in a state of constant legislative improvement. That is why, a number of provisions have been elaborated to foster the development of this institution in the national legislation.Discussion and Conclusions. The problems of the gift agreement legal regulation have been identified, including the law enforcement errors, which occupy a special place in the national judicial practices. All of the above-mentioned does not merely make the topic of the present study relevant, but also determines the main trends for improvement of the current Russian legislation referring to the gift agreement regulation.

Introduction: the paper examines the problems with the legal regulation of using digital financial assets as investments. The emerging problems, according to the authors, are primarily related to the legal means inherent in the mechanism of the legal regulation of emerging legal relations, as well as to the significant specifics of relations arising on the Internet and other information and communication networks. Purpose: the purpose of the work was to identify the specific features of this relationship concerning the impossibility of geographically determining the residence of the party to the relationship and, as a result, determining the national law to be applied in relation to investing digital financial assets. Methods: the specifics of legal relations arising in the information and communication network between investors in digital financial assets and other entities have led to the use of special research methods. Among the general scientific tools, along with analysis, synthesis, deduction, and induction, the empirical method of legal modeling was used. Specific scientific methods were also used: dogmatic (formal-logical) and formal-legal, as well as the methods of legal forecasting, legal analogy, and technical-legal. Results: the paper substantiates the complex composition of legal relations, the parties to which are both “legal” and “technical” entities. The interrelationship between the actions of the parties causing legal consequences is shown. It is proposed to classify the parties to legal relations arising in the virtual network in the process of investing digital financial assets into the main ones, whose actions generate legal consequences, and the auxiliary (additional) ones, whose actions provide the possibility of legal consequences. It is argued that the process of emerging legal relations is influenced by the actions of all parties, both basic and auxiliary. An important problem of interaction in the virtual network in the process of investing digital financial assets is the identification and authentication of the parties. This complexity is directly related to the definition of the nationality of the party to the legal relationship and the definition of national law to be applied. It is indicated that in the Russian Federation, this issue has been practically resolved with the creation of a Unified identification and authentication system. However, in international and interethnic relations, it still needs to be worked out. Several ways to solve the problem of unified legal regulation of relations involving the investment of digital financial assets are analyzed. There are four main models that currently exist. First of all, it concerns the convergence of the national laws of different states. The disadvantages of this approach are indicated. The second model is related to the creation of a unified international regulation. The arguments “for” and “against” are given. The problem of creating a polycentric or decentralized law is considered. The third model is related to the use of technical norms in the regulation of relations along with the legal ones. The fourth approach justifies the existence of two levels of regulation: external and internal. Conclusions: the authors have proposed the fifth model of the legal regulation of relations for the investment of digital financial assets, characterized by the legal regulation of individual objects of digital communication, a combination of external state regulation with self-regulation, as well as the possibility of creating an information platform for its own legal regulation within the system (the intra-system regulation or platform law). The problem of the existence of internal local regulation of legal relations for investing digital financial assets is analyzed. The conclusion is made about the formation of a local platform law. The polycentricity of the supra-platform law is substantiated. The problem of prohibiting the counter-provision of a digital financial asset is solved. It is proposed to replace this ban with a ban on the use of a digital financial asset as a means of payment.

The article is devoted to a comprehensive analysis of the legal foundations for the use of simulation and modeling technologies in the activities of law enforcement agencies of Ukraine in the context of ensuring state security. The need for an in-depth study of this issue has intensified against the backdrop of a global administrative and legal reform, which has placed at the forefront the necessity of developing effective mechanisms for the legal regulation of law enforcement activities, particularly through the introduction of modern digital, simulation, and artificial intelligence technologies. The study provides an extensive theoretical examination of the subject matter and proposes an original conceptual framework for improving the state security system by establishing clear regulatory norms governing the use of modeling, simulation, and artificial intelligence technologies. Special emphasis is placed on identifying systemic shortcomings and gaps in the current national legislation regulating such technologies, as well as on substantiating the need to update legal mechanisms capable of ensuring integrity, ethical conduct, and the prevention and counteraction of money laundering in Ukraine. The article reveals the specifics of modern simulation-situational techniques in personnel training, optimization of operational and service activities, and support for managerial decision-making. It provides an expanded overview of regulatory acts that directly or indirectly govern the sphere of simulation modeling, identifying issues of fragmentation, ambiguity, and insufficient coherence among legal norms. Considerable attention is devoted to aspects of cybersecurity, personal data protection, prevention of abuse, and the development of ethical standards and procedural safeguards for the use of intelligent technologies in law enforcement activities. Based on the conducted analysis, the article formulates scientifically grounded recommendations for the further development of legal regulation in the field of simulation-modeling systems and artificial intelligence, as well as defines directions for integrating these technologies into the national security system, taking into account contemporary challenges and future development prospects. The Concept of Administrative Law Reform of Ukraine substantiates a coherent set of theoretical and practical ideas, conclusions, provisions, and proposals intended to introduce necessary clarifications and amendments—both to doctrinal aspects and to the normative system of Ukrainian administrative law—regarding the legal regulation of the use of simulation and modeling technologies in ensuring state security by law enforcement agencies.

The article examines the problems of the essence of law enforcement activity in the conditions of war in Ukraine, reveals various views of scientists on the definition of the studied concept. The author highlights the following main features of law enforcement activity: aimed at protecting the rights, rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of a person and ensuring law and order; implemented on the basis of the law with the help of legal measures provided for by law; are carried out by special state bodies or subjects authorized by the state (public formations, organizations, officials). The author divides law enforcement activities into the following types: protection of the order of social relations established by law - fight against offenders; public safety activities; fight against crime - disclosure and investigation of crimes; supervision of compliance with legislation; ensuring the execution of decisions of courts and other bodies in cases provided for by law; ensuring state policy in the field of justice; provision of qualified legal assistance to citizens and organizations, notarial activities, activities of private security and detective firms, etc. The structure of law enforcement agencies is considered. The article notes the researchers' opinion that law enforcement agencies cannot be demanded to eradicate and reduce crime. Their activities are only one of the factors that neutralize many aspects of crime. According to the author, public opinion is one of the main criteria for the official evaluation of the activities of law enforcement agencies, and in particular the Military Law and Order Service in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. It is determined by public trust and citizen support for the activities of law enforcement agencies. Therefore, in order to increase public trust and support their activities, law enforcement agencies should more actively involve citizens and public associations in law enforcement activities. On the basis of the conducted legal analysis, reasonable conclusions were made.

The subject of the study is materials of prosecutorial, law enforcement and judicial practice, norms of procedural legislation and legislation on the prosecutor's office regulating these public relations, as well as positions formed on the essence of the principle of validity and its implementation in the activities of the prosecutor's office and other law enforcement agencies. The object of the research in the article is the social relations arising from the implementation of the principle of reasonableness of decision-making in the implementation of prosecutorial and other law enforcement activities. The author examines in detail such aspects of the topic as the correlation of validity and objective truth, the main characteristics of the principle and the problem of the correlation of the normative regulation of justification and the empirical task of its establishment. The principle of reasonableness of decision-making is one of the key principles of the activities of the prosecutor's office, other law enforcement agencies, as well as regulatory bodies; the need for reasonableness of decisions taken by law enforcement officials is stated in many regulations. At the same time, legal acts do not contain regulation of this fundamental principle; there is practically no scientific elaboration of it, there are only studies of its individual aspects, without highlighting the key provisions, the study of which in the activities of law enforcement agencies and in more detail the prosecutor's office is devoted to the article, what is the novelty of the study. In the course of the research, the views of scientists on the content of the principle of validity, the procedure for its legal regulation were studied, as a result of which the main characteristics of this principle were identified, which should be the basis for the legal regulation of the principle in relation to the activities of the prosecutor's office and the court. The conclusion is formulated about the need to consolidate this principle in the Law on the Prosecutor's Office, which will prevent the adoption of unreasonable decisions possible if this principle is not observed, and abuse of authority, which in turn can lead to a violation of the principle of legality, which is a special contribution of the author to the study of this topic.

The subject of the study is the conceptual, theoretical, empirical and methodological foundations of overcoming corruption risks in the activities of law enforcement agencies in the conditions of economic integration. Methodology. General and specific methods of knowledge were used in the research process. The dialectical method was used to study the nature of corruption at the legal and economic levels of its manifestation. The analysis created the conditions for a multifaceted study of all the characteristic features of corruption, corruption risk and corruption risk management in the context of economic integration. The synthesis created the conditions for generalising the characteristics of the above categories in the legal and economic fields. The formal legal method allowed to correctly interpret the content of normative legal acts that determine the general, special and local legal regime of corruption risk management in the activities of law enforcement agencies in the conditions of economic integration. The purpose of the article is to identify the economic and legal foundations of corruption as a socio-economic and legal phenomenon, as well as corruption risks and their management in the activities of law enforcement agencies, at a theoretical and empirical level. The results of the study showed that measures to overcome corruption risks in the activities of law enforcement agencies are components of the process of their management, which have the appropriate differentiation, organisational, legal and socio-economic basis. Conclusion. Corruption as a social, economic and legal phenomenon has a number of causes, including political, economic, legal, organisational and socio-psychological. Corruption causes corresponding negative phenomena in the development of the economy both at the national and global, international level. Taking into account the position of international and Ukrainian legislation, the study of the nature of the risk of corruption was conducted, as a result of which the categories of assessment and management of the risk of corruption were distinguished in favour of the latter. The positive results of improving the legal regulation of corruption risk management were noted. Based on the results of the study of the content of corruption risks and the process of their management, proposals for amendments to the Law of Ukraine "On Prevention of Corruption" were made. It was concluded that the phenomenon of overcoming corruption risks in law enforcement bodies represents a system of appropriate measures, which can be divided into the following groups: 1) general; 2) special; 3) local. General measures are defined within the framework of the general provisions of the current international and domestic legislation, which applies to all subjects in the field of anti-corruption legal regulation, in particular to officials of state authorities. Special ones reflect the specifics of such measures within the limits of the respective law enforcement agency, which is reflected in the content of the anti-corruption programme for the respective period. Local ones appear within the framework of the relevant law enforcement body (police), which is mediated by the anti-corruption programme of this particular body.

On the basis of the analysis of the state of research of algorithms and programming of investigative activity in criminalistics, the author has grounded the expediency of applying a programmatic approach to solving typical tactical problems in other areas of law enforcement activities. Theoretical prerequisites for the development of procedural action programs by law enforcement entities in Ukraine (criminal and procedural, operative and search, administrative and jurisdictional) have been determined. The necessity of intensifying scientific researches in the direction of development of branch concepts of tactics of different types of law enforcement activities and their constituent elements (the concept of tactics, tactical situation, tactical task, tactical technique and system of tactical techniques and their situational predetermination) has been determined. In particular, the author has determined that the investigator is not the only possible subject of being armed with tactical recommendations in the form of algorithms and programs. The subject matter of the research of criminalistic tactics is not only investigative activity, but also operative and search, judicial and prosecutorial activity in criminal proceedings. Equally important is the tactical completion of administrative activities of law enforcement agencies and, on this basis, the establishment of programs of action by police officers, border guards, National Guard, customs service, etc. in exercising their administrative powers for the protection of public order and state border, actions in emergency situations, administrative cases, etc. The justification of the possibility of applying a programmatic approach within administrative activities of law enforcement agencies is the uniformity of administrative and jurisdictional, criminal and procedural activities, which are covered by a single concept of “law enforcement activity”. It has been established that the programmatic approach can be applied in any sphere of law enforcement activity, if: 1) such activity is situational in nature, and it is possible to perform the tasks arising during the implementation of this activity through consistent implementation of certain actions; 2) there is the need to streamline these activities by providing tactical recommendations in the modern form with the use of computer technologies and the ability to use them directly in the course of action, in “field conditions”; 3) the level of elaboration of theoretical bases of tactics of a specific type of law enforcement activity is sufficient (the concept of tactics, tactical situation, tactical task, tactical technique and system of tactical techniques has been elaborated).

The article examines modern information-analytical and organizational methods used in law enforcement activities in Ukraine in the context of the transformation of the security system, the implementation of European standards of law and order and the growth of the level of social challenges. The information-analytical component of the activities of law enforcement agencies is defined as a set of interrelated measures for the collection, verification, systematization, processing, analysis and storage of data necessary for the formation of substantiated management decisions, timely response to offenses and the development of effective strategies for combating crime. Considerable attention is paid to the use of modern information technologies, automated databases, artificial intelligence systems, geoinformation resources and criminological analysis as tools for increasing the effectiveness of the activities of the police, prosecutor’s office, State Bureau of Investigation and other security sector entities. Organizational methods are considered as a set of management decisions that cover planning, coordination, control and assessment of the effectiveness of official activities, ensure the streamlining of work, rational allocation of resources, the development of interdepartmental interaction and compliance with the principles of legality and transparency. Particular emphasis is placed on the importance of increasing the role of management culture in the activities of law enforcement agencies, the formation of unified management standards and the creation of conditions for establishing effective communication between various service structures. Such methods are aimed not only at ensuring the stability of the system, but also at its adaptation to new challenges, in particular those related to transnational crime, cyber threats and hybrid forms of offenses. It is emphasized that the combination of information-analytical and organizational methods is a key factor in the formation of a comprehensive model of effective law enforcement activities. On the one hand, it ensures the accumulation, analysis and forecasting based on reliable data, and on the other hand, it creates conditions for clear coordination of management decisions and strengthening their practical implementation. An important direction remains the integration of domestic practices in the field of law enforcement with international approaches and standards, which will contribute to strengthening the institutional capacity of law enforcement agencies and the formation of a sustainable model of guaranteeing national security.

Introduction: currently, the problem of coordination by the prosecutor’s office of the law enforcement activities to combat crimes committed using information and telecommunication technologies deserves special attention. Among the significant number of tasks of the prosecutor’s office, the coordination of law enforcement activities is special, since the crime considered in this study is beyond the human reality, is committed in the so-called digital space, or through the use of modern technologies. The solution of this problem depends not only on the state and trends of information crime, but also on the information security of Russian society. The purpose of the study: to identify and characterize the measures of the prosecutor’s response in the field of prevention of crimes committed using information and telecommunication technologies. The objectives of the study: to identify and describe the problems of coordinating the activities of law enforcement agencies to combat crimes, whose leading role belongs to the prosecutor’s office, committed using information and telecommunication technologies; to assess the coordination activities of the law enforcement agencies; to develop recommendations for improving the coordination of the law enforcement activities by the prosecutor’s office. Methods: the team of the paper’s authors applies the general scientific, systemic, institutional research methods, as well as the methods of legal statistics, which allow revealing the goals and objectives set for the research team. Results: the main problems of coordinating the law enforcement activities to combat crimes committed using information and telecommunication technologies are identified, to which the paper’s authors refer: redirecting case materials by territoriality, delaying the consideration of applications (reports) on crimes and materials of the prosecutor’s inspections, misinterpreting the law, eliminating and compensating the damage caused by crimes. Conclusions: to increase the efficiency of prosecutorial supervision over the law enforcement activities in the investigation of crimes committed using information and telecommunication technologies, it is necessary: to provide methodological and practical assistance, make requirements based on the results of the prosecutor’s inspection, hold meetings involving the supervising deputy prosecutors of the districts and the management.

The article is devoted to the analysis of problems related to the introduction of information systems based on artificial intelligence into the activities of law enforcement agencies. The positive aspects of using artificial intelligence systems to solve official tasks by law enforcement officers are emphasized. The directions for the application of AI systems in law enforcement activities are described. At the same time, a range of current and potential problems related to the use of intelligent systems that already serve the law enforcement sphere and may be used in the future are outlined. It is emphasized that artificial intelligence systems developed for law enforcement officers have a high degree of risk, threatening the protection of human rights. It is assumed that the actions of law enforcement officers as a result of the use of AI systems may not comply with the principle of proportionality. The emphasis is on the issues of the quality of AI developments and the data on which they are trained, and the related problems of liability and transparency policy of the manufacturer, as well as the problems of intellectual property protection. It is emphasized that the use of inappropriate AI systems in procedural actions is unacceptable, as it may violate the human right to protection and a fair trial. The opinion is affirmed that artificial intelligence systems designed for law enforcement agencies must be accurate and reliable; their intellectual work must be transparent, understandable, and safe. Attention is drawn to the need to develop high-quality AI systems with narrow specialization, designed to help law enforcement agencies perform certain tasks: risk assessment, detection of disinformation, detection of deepfakes, profile creation, for analytics of crimes against individuals, etc. It is proposed to classify not only AI systems for law enforcement agencies, justice, and border services, but also those developed for customs and tax authorities as high-risk. The problem of using intelligent systems to combat crime in the metaverse is outlined. The problem is identified as the absence of regulatory acts in national legislation regulating the implementation and use of information systems based on artificial intelligence in law enforcement and other areas of life.

The article analyzes the place of space security and the space industry in the activities of law enforcement agencies of Ukraine as subjects of administrative and legal regulation. The subjects of administrative and legal regulation of public-private partnership in the space industry in Ukraine are state authorities that are vested with special powers in the field of space security. Special subjects of administrative and legal regulation are created to ensure the implementation of state policy in certain areas and provide methodological assistance on issues that are common to all or many sectors of the economy. The scope of the permit for public-private partnership in the space industry in Ukraine will also extend to persons who perform key functions in this sector and participate in administrative and legal regulatory procedures. It is emphasized that among the special subjects of administrative and legal regulation of public-private partnership in the space industry and space security are law enforcement agencies of Ukraine. It is emphasized that the need to include law enforcement agencies of Ukraine in the mechanisms of administrative and legal regulation in this area is explained by the large number of cases of unlawful violation of the rights of participants in public-private partnerships in the space industry, in particular, space security, and the need for effective mechanisms for preventing and terminating such violations. It is emphasized that the performance of the same functions of administrative and legal regulation is entrusted to bodies with functional competence, in particular to bodies that carry out management and supervision, administrative and economic, regulatory and permitting functions. The author emphasizes that these bodies ensure the implementation of state policy in specific sectors and provide methodological assistance on issues common to all or many sectors of the economy. Summing up the place of space security and the space industry in the activities of law enforcement agencies of Ukraine as subjects of administrative and legal regulation, it is established that the specified subjects should include those who perform their main functions, powers in accordance with the legislation and, at the same time, participate in administrative and legal regulation in this area.
