It was established that the term "crimes of an international character " came to the criminal law of Ukraine on international criminal law. Also, these crimes are socially dangerous, internationally wrongful, offensive acts that encroach upon various areas of international law and order. It is determined that an important feature of a crime of an international character is the attachment of its wrongdoing in an international treaty, and Ukraine as a party to these treaties must implement and implement them in their legislation. The author notes that not all crimes that should be attributed to crimes of an international character are located in 20 section of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.
