The judges emphasised that such cooperation strengthens the institutional capacity of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine, facilitates the exchange of experience, in particular on the functioning of the institution of constitutional complaint, harmonisation of decisions of the national constitutional court with the practice of the ECHR and the CJEU. It also promotes the study of new approaches to addressing the issues facing the Constitutional Court on the path of Ukraine's accession to the EU.
