ECONOMIC SECURITY OF THE STATE UNDER MARTIAL LAW

Анотація

The experience of conducting operations (combat actions) during the repulsion of the large-scale armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine demonstrates the need to increase the combat potential and combat capability of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in order to acquire operational and combat capabilities sufficient to perform the tasks of state defence. The development and acquisition of these capabilities is contingent upon the military-economic potential of the state in question. This potential can be conceptualised as a combination of two distinct yet interrelated dimensions: the economic and military facets. Simultaneously, the preservation (protection) of the military and economic potential of the state largely depends on its Armed Forces, which, as a military formation, are responsible for the defence of Ukraine, protection of its sovereignty, territorial integrity and inviolability, according to the Constitution of Ukraine. This confirms the interconnection of the two components of national security (economic and military). At the same time, the military-economic security of the state should be considered as an integral result of the activities of the military-political leadership of the state, aimed at ensuring armed protection of its interests. The required level of operational (combat) capabilities of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is achieved through a significant set of measures, including measures of resource, primarily logistical, support of troops (forces). The level of logistical support of military formations largely depends on the military and economic potential of the state. However, in peacetime and wartime, the organisation of logistics support for troops (forces) has certain differences, and the main difference is the growing level of military threats to the military-economic potential of the state and the possibility of further escalation of these threats into a military conflict (armed aggression). Accordingly, the level of military threats to the economic security of the state is growing. In order to counteract armed aggression and preserve (protect) the military and economic potential of the state, Ukraine introduced the legal regime of martial law. Nevertheless, as of today, the functioning of relations and activities of the relevant institutions for ensuring the economic and military security of the state under the legal regime of martial law remain unregulated and not balanced within the legal framework. This requires the military and political leadership of the state to take the necessary measures to ensure the required level of military and economic security of the state. Consequently, military science (its branches) faces the need to address the existing problems of economic and military security of the state, in particular, to improve (bring into line) legislation in the field of national security and defence and to develop scientifically based recommendations for increasing the combat capability of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, achieving the required level of their operational and combat capabilities to perform the tasks of state defence. A significant gap in the modern theory of economic security of the state is the lack of a comprehensive approach to the study of the problems of functioning of military-economic security relations and the relevant institutions of the state that regulate them under martial law. The interrelation of economic and military security as components of the national security of the state is only partially traced in existing scientific approaches. The peculiarities of the economic security of the state under martial law (armed aggression) are also considered rather superficially. The dependence of the level of military-economic security of the state on the level of threats to its national security in the military sphere requires scientific substantiation. The purpose of the article is to present the views on the essence and features of economic security of the state under martial law.
