Mechanisms of international cooperation in the implementation of foreign criminal sentences

الملخص EN

The subject of implementing foreign criminal judgments is considered one of the most important topics of private international law, due to the development that the world is witnessing in all areas of life, as crime is no longer limited to the borders of one country, but its impact has extended to affect the entire international community.

therefore, we must keep pace with this development and modernize the mechanisms for combating crime in accordance with the development of the phenomenon of crime.

international cooperation in implementing foreign criminal judgments is considered one of the highest manifestations of this development.

the importance of the issue is evident in the fact that the territorial borders of the state are not an obstacle between the criminal and the application of punishment to him, and that there is a reconciliation between the independence of each state in exercising its penal jurisdiction within the borders of its territory and the necessity of exercising its right to punishment on the one hand, and combating crime at the international and national levels on the other hand.
