The relevance of the study stems from the complexity and multifaceted nature of the mechanisms that determine the content of legislative and law enforcement activities in modern States. The purpose of this study is to examine the implementation of international legal aspects related to the protection of human rights and freedoms in the law enforcement practices of post-Soviet States. Among the methodological approaches used are theoretical, functional, formal legal and dogmatic approaches, as well as the method of synthesis, logical analysis and others. The international legal content of the categories of rights that offer an avenue for citizens to access justice has been analysed and elaborated upon. An analysis of the European Court of Human Rights’ handling of appeals concerning violations of the right to a fair trial and the right to access justice has been conducted. Having analysed the legal foundations and principles of international law, the provisions and acts of an international instrument for the protection of human and civil rights were cited. A systematic failure to enforce court decisions has been identified as a major concern, in breach of the guaranteed right to seek the protection of one’s rights and interests before international bodies and organizations. Equally important is the exploration of the feasibility of introducing artificial intelligence into the judiciary’s work to provide a mechanism for protecting fundamental human rights. The practical value of the findings offers insight into the means to reinforce the international legal aspects of protecting fundamental human rights in an integrative environment.
