important field of relations between the states,
it is clear that all the issues and details linked
with it have to be regulated clearly. States usually sign the different agreements among them
to be able to regulate such issues. And all this
agreements, conventions and other types of the
legal acts regulating the relations between states
linked with the international cooperation against
the crimes are forming the legal basis of international cooperation in the fight against crime.
The main role in the list of such sources plays
the conventions and other documents adopted
by the United Nations Organization.
