Abstract
Paper deals with the issues of the development of mimetic activity in Ukraine. Data are given on the area of mine clearance of the liberated territories of Donetsk and Luhans’k regions, the number of disposed explosive objects and registered victims from mines and other explosive remnants of war. In order to reveal the problems of the chosen topic of research, the purpose of the paper was to study the essence of mimetic activities and to review the development of legislation in this area in Ukraine.
The content of the concept “offensive activity” is analyzed and its main tasks are defined, in particular: informing the population about the mine danger and the danger of explosive remnants of war; demining of land and water resources and food; restoration of infrastructure in demarcated areas; assistance to victims; destruction and storage of ammunition; recovery of the economy in the affected region. Components of mine action, namely: information on mine danger and mine clearance (“humanitarian demining”) are characterized. The current regulatory framework in the field of mine action in Ukraine, as well as existing draft laws on the implementation of mine action, it was established that the absence of a single specialized law on mine activity inhibits the effective implementation of the demining of territories on its East, not only domestic specialists, but also international non-governmental organizations.

It is proposed to establish a clear legal mechanism for the organization and coordination of mine action activities by the national body for the effective demining of zones of armed conflict in the Donets’k and Luhans’k regions, which would establish a procedure for attracting highly skilled personnel and international non-governmental organizations to this activity, would act as a customer of research and developmental works on the development of the latest special equipment for demining units and the sources of funding of mentioned activities are determined.
