attorney at AVELLUM, a leading Ukrainian law firm. He and Dr.
Rosinus talk about the impact the current situation had and still
has on Mr. Fortunenko’s daily work. He explains how the legal
system, especially court proceedings and criminal law enforcement,
continues to work despite the hardship. He describes which
difficulties they face and how they manage to maintain an organized
and working business. Mr. Fortunenko further speaks about his
experiences as a voluntary soldier last year and how he and his
colleagues endure these difficult times mentally. Mr. Fortunenko
also mentions the present discussion about future damage
compensation from Russia and thanks for all the help and support
Ukraine receives from all over Europe and the United States.
Furthermore, they talk about the criminal law system in the
Ukraine, in particular, new criminal laws that were introduced in
April 2022. Furthermore, Mr. Fortunenko reports about a recent
cybercrime case he worked on. In this context, Mr. Fortunenko and
