An assessment is made of the content of the section of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, concerning criminal liability and punishment of minors. This section is an integral part of the General Part of the Criminal Code; it is inextricably linked with other provisions of the Criminal Code. First of all, this connection manifests itself in the fact that all the initial provisions concerning the tasks and principles of the criminal law, the grounds for criminal liability, the effect of the criminal law in time, space and by persons, on the concept and types of crimes, on guilt and her kinds, complicity, circumstances that exclude the crime of the act, and some others also refer to minors who have committed crimes. The general part of the Criminal Code contains norms regarding the specifics of children’s responsibility for committing them with criminal offenses, while not excluding the extension of the other privileged norms of the General Part of the Code to the latter.
