( Pp. 271-274)

This article examined the issues of termination of pregnancy under the criminal law of Russia and foreign countries, as well as the criminal - legal aspects of illegal conduct of this activity. The purpose of this article is to conduct a comparative study of the criminal law aspects of termination of pregnancy under the criminal law of the Russian Federation and the law of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, as well as Lithuania and Latvia. Methodology and methods: for the implementation of the goals and objectives set in this article, a comparative legal research method, induction, synthesis, a method of interpreting legal norms were used, allowing to analyze the existing problems, as well as to determine the main directions of criminal legal counteraction to crime. Conclusions: Based on the results of the review, the following conclusions were made: 1- in violation of the provisions of the current legislation, artificial termination of pregnancy can be carried out by an obstetrician-gynecologist, but outside a medical organization, or in violation of the terms. This position finds its confirmation in the criminal legislation of many foreign states, in which the legislator provides for the responsibility of medical workers in case of violation of the conditions of artificial termination of pregnancy regulated by the law, and not only restricts the corpus delicti to the characteristics of its subject; 2 - on the advisability of amending Article 123 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. Scope of the results: the material presented in this article may be of interest to students of higher educational institutions, graduate students, as well as researchers and teachers of law schools.
