| Summary: | The article examines the actual problems of constitutional and legal responsibility of political
parties in the context of today's challenges. The author analyzes the normative grounds for applying
such constitutional and legal sanctions as a ban on the formation and activities of a political party or
cancellation of a political party's registration in case of unlawful acts. A retrospective analysis of the
practice of banning political parties and canceling their registration in Ukraine generally indicates a
positive trend in the development of national legislation on political parties and their responsibility in
recent years. During this period, the grounds for banning political parties were significantly expanded
and specified, and the mechanism for their realization was improved in accordance with the concept
of “democracy that can defend itself”. The challenges of the Russian-Ukrainian war have objectively
demonstrated and convincingly proved that the activities of any political parties that encroach on the
territorial integrity, security and constitutional order of Ukraine, support the aggressor state can and
should be banned in court. At the same time, the national judicial practice confirmed the relevant
European experience and showed that the decision to apply such a constitutional and legal sanction
as a ban on a political party must be appropriately justified, based on a proper evidence base, not
taken in a hurry, and comply with international standards to prevent further appeals against the state's
actions to the European Court of Human Rights, etc. |
