issues of Article 442 (Genocide) of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. Disclosure of the content of the norm
of criminal legislation genocide, will provide an opportunity for the correct, necessary and sufficient
qualification of this act in practice, as a necessary condition of the principle of legality reflected in the
Constitution of Ukraine. Revealing the signs of genocide and establishing the legal construction
(objective and subjective signs) of this article is the legal basis for qualification, which is characterized by
the consistency and orderliness of its signs. Therefore, the article reveals the methods of committing this
crime against representatives of a national, ethnic, racial or religious group, namely: taking the lives of
members of the group; inflicting serious bodily harm on them; creation of living conditions for the group
designed for its complete or partial physical destruction; reducing childbearing or preventing it in such a
group; forcible transfer of children from one group to another. Certain criminal offenses (Part 2 of Article
115, Article 161 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine) that are related to the crime of genocide in some respects (Article 442 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine) are highlighted.
Currently, the mass media report on cases of acts that have signs of genocide against the
Ukrainian people denial of the existence of Ukrainian identity; accusations in the mirror;
denazification and dehumanization; constructing an existential threat in the person of Ukrainians;
preparing the Russian audience to commit or condone atrocities. In addition, historical facts are revealed,
which under certain circumstances (pressure from russia) were hushed up and not investigated by either
legal or historical sciences. Over the past five years (2017-2022), there has been a significant increase in
recorded criminal offenses under Art. 442 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, which was most likely
provoked by Russia s military aggression against Ukraine.
