📉 88th out of 142 — that’s Ukraine’s position in the 2024 World Justice Project Rule of Law Index.
This is more than a number.
It reflects deep-rooted problems:
— selective application of the law;
— courts that fail to ensure justice;
— officials who often act above the law.
At Free Nation, a liberal reform movement from Ukraine, we see rule of law not as a theoretical ideal, but as the foundation of freedom, prosperity, and dignity.
We advocate for:
✅ independent, competitive courts;
✅ the use of English law and private arbitration;
✅ the presumption of innocence;
✅ the principle: no crime without a victim.
🏛️ The role of the state is not to simulate justice — but to protect individual liberty, property rights, and equality before the law.
📌 Ukraine’s 88th place is not a sentence — it’s a diagnosis. And we’re working on the cure.
