Crime in Ukraine

The fight against crime in Ukraine is led by the Ukrainian Police and certain other agencies. Due to the hard economic situation in the 1990s, the crime rate rose steadily to a peak in 2000. Following this peak, the crime rate declined, until 2009. In that year, the world financial crisis reached Ukraine.

In 2017, the situation with regard to crime started to improve. The preliminary crime data for 2020^[1] are the lowest in a decade.
