Abstract

The author in the article focuses on theoretical and practical approaches to the immunity as the factor of political corruption in Ukraine. It is noted that in spite of some positive developments in the issue of reforming anti-corruption legislation and bringing with EU standards, in general anti-corruption policy in Ukraine is not effective enough and requires further reform. Also stated that one of the main challenges in the context of real anti-corruption changes should be proper implementation of the new anti-corruption legislation and ensuring the implement recommendations of European institutions for its improvement (regulation of procedure for liability for corruption offenses persons who have immunity (inviolability); ensuring transparency for financing of political parties and election campaigns; clear separation of administrative and criminal liability for corruption offenses, etc.).
