Experience of border guard units of the leading countries in countering terrorism and prospects for its implementation by the state border guard service of Ukraine

Summary/Abstract: The article reveals the results of the study of experience of border guard units of the world's leading countries on combating terrorism and formulation of the prospects of its implementation in the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine (SBGSU). The research was carried out using the methods of legal comparative studies, that is, by comparing the legal support of counter-terrorism units of the state border protection in the leading countries of the world and Ukraine. Based on this, proposals for the improvement of antiterrorism bodies of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine have been formulated. Ukraine should use the foreign experience in this sphere, namely: create anti-terrorism legislation, which is accurate, clear, addressing real threats; to recognize all terrorist acts as criminal; define the system of bodies engaged in combating terrorism, including borderguard authorities, giving them sufficient competence; assign the bodies of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine anti-terrorism functions; interact with the border guard agencies of different countries in the context of counter-terrorism activities and exchange of information; apply the latest technical and software developments with investigation and identification of terrorists and means of terror; strengthen anti-terrorist activities during border control.
