Abstract

In this article, the significance of international treaties in the regulation of interstate relations in the recognition and enforcement of court decisions (decisions) of foreign states is analyzed. The author examines the regulation of interstate legal relations through universal, regional, and bilateral international treaties. In particular, universal, regional, and bilateral international treaties are considered, and the specific features of each of them in the process of recognition and enforcement of judgments (decisions) of foreign states are highlighted. In particular, issues such as state sovereignty, national interests, and confiscation of proceeds from crime in the recognition and enforcement of court decisions (decisions) of foreign states are covered within the framework of international cooperation. The article analyzes bilateral agreements signed by the Republic of Uzbekistan with such countries as Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, and the Czech Republic, including agreements on the continuation of serving sentences and the provision of legal assistance to persons sentenced to imprisonment. Also, attention is paid to the requirements of the Minsk and Chisinau Conventions “On Legal Assistance and Legal Relations in Civil, Family and Criminal Matters,” as well as bilateral agreements of the Republic of Uzbekistan on the recognition and enforcement of court decisions (decisions) of foreign states. At the same time, attention was drawn to the differences between the general approach of universal conventions and the procedural procedures in regional, bilateral agreements.
