In this regard, international police cooperation has been considered as a direction of the state policy in the field of crime combating. It has been proved that criminological safety is one of the obligatory attributes that ensure the normal functioning of a democratic state. The problems of criminological safety in Ukraine are quite acute, which is confirmed by modern criminal and legal statistics. According to the integrated criterion the author has determined nowadays the urgent directions of international police cooperation in combating: international and internal terrorism; the seizure of hostages; illicit trafficking in narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances; illicit trafficking in chemical and nuclear materials; illicit trafficking in weapons and ammunition; illegal operations in the field of high technologies, first of all cybercrimes; international and national corruption; illegal banking operations (money laundering) and counterfeiting; theft and smuggling of cars; illegal human trafficking across the border; the trafficking of women and children for the purpose of their sexual exploitation; human trafficking for the purpose of transplantation of human organs.
