Abstract
The purpose of the research is to disclose criminal procedural protection (defense) of human rights in conditions of an armed conflict. Interpretation of Article 45 of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine in terms of limiting the constitutional right to choose a defense lawyer has been analyzed. A comparative analysis of current and European legislation in the sphere of access to legal aid is presented. Decisions of the ECtHR in the cases “Brusco v. France”, “Talat Tanci v. Turkey”, “Katz and others v. Ukraine” have been researched. The main issues related to participation of the defense party in criminal proceedings are highlighted. It has been theoretically established that an efficient implementation of the right to defense in criminal proceedings requires the application of the ECtHR practice, which serves as an additional effective mechanism for effective defense of human rights and representation of human interests in criminal proceedings.
