15. Addressing the harmonization of legislation of Ukraine on international economic law.

In considering the harmonization of legislation of Ukraine on international economic law, especially to keep in mind that it is part of international law, which stipulates the need to analyze common problems associated with the said harmonization.

First, it should be noted that in the world today there are almost no states that would, making its internal and foreign policy, not cooperated with other countries directly or through appropriate international organizations. This, in turn, requires that each be prudent comparing their actions with the actions of other countries, and when you need it and agreeing to make joint optimal decisions. Today almost all States understand that it is so on the basis of equal cooperation and peaceful coexistence can be achieved not only overall global progress, but also of each of the respective states. This approach to relationships with other states legally defined by the Constitution of Ukraine, the Declaration of State Sovereignty of Ukraine, the Law "On international treaties of Ukraine" dated December 22, 1993 and other regulations.

Creation and development of the national legal framework of international cooperation - one of the factors that contributed to the recognition of Ukraine, to establish diplomatic relations with about 160 countries. She now works with more than 100 international organizations. This enables our country not only successfully cooperate with states in different directions, but also play an important role in ensuring peace and security on Earth.

One of them, moreover, very important is the issue of harmonization of legislation of Ukraine on international law. Clearly, the degree of compliance with national law of any state legal international standards depends largely on the effectiveness of international cooperation with other countries and international organizations. Even joining some international organizations including the European Union (today many of the world wishing to become members, Ukraine is also active in this direction) depends inter alia on whether a country is ready to accept integrational legislation of this international organization.

Exploring the issue of harmonization of national legislation of international law, the main thing - methodologically correctly identify the mechanism of their solution. The best option, as it seems to be bringing the Constitution of any country to international standards. It is extremely important, given that the Constitution is the basis, legal basis for the development of national legislation. Understandably, on how fully it will take into account the norms and principles of international law, as fully appears in their national legislation, which is to develop constitutional provisions. Thus, there is every reason to consider the rules and principles of international law as a creative factor in the development of constitutional law and other fields.

Through implementation of the legislation of Ukraine the rules and principles of international law, our state practically harmonize its legal system not only with the international legal system, but also with national legal systems of the world. Since independence, our state of the state authorities concluded more than two thousand international (interstate and intergovernmental) agreements.

In particular, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine ratified 41 international treaties of Ukraine on friendship, mutual assistance and cooperation with other countries, 49 agreements aimed at establishing, developing and deepening the cooperation of our country with the world economy and trade, 34 - in cooperation of Ukraine with international financial institutions, 44 - to avoid double taxation, 37 - for the promotion and reciprocal protection of investments, 17 - to enter the free trade regime, 15 - to regulate the international transport of passengers and cargo.

Clearly, clarification and practical problems of harmonization of legislation of Ukraine on international law is an important task not only of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine and other state agencies and their officials, scientific institutions, scientists. It should be clear that building a perfect national legal system without international law today is practically not a single state, because no one that would have carried more or less international cooperation. That is why the level of coordination of national legal systems of international law depends largely on the level of international cooperation of any state of the world and its credibility.
