Civil–military administrations (Ukrainian: Військово-цивільні адміністрації, Viis’kovo-tsyvil’ni administratsii) are a number of temporary local government units that are concentrated on the territories of Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts of eastern Ukraine, due to the ongoing War in Donbass.[1] They are created under the guise of the Anti-Terrorist Center of the Security Service of Ukraine.[3]
Legal sphere
Judicially, the status of civil–military administrations was created by the Verkhovna Rada law "On the civil-military administrations" dated 3 February 2015,[1] and signed into law by President Petro Poroshenko on 26 February 2015.[3]
The law outlines their organization, jurisdiction, and order of activities for providing civil security, creating conditions for the normalization of life, enforcement of the rule of law, participation in combating sabotage manifestations and acts of terrorism, and the prevention a humanitarian disaster in territories where an anti-terrorist operation is being conducted.[3]
The law stipulates that it will expire a year from the date of its publication, although its authority can be prolonged by the parliament based on a proposal of the President of Ukraine.[4] In addition, the law will automatically expire in the case that martial law is introduced in the country or in specific territories, or if a state of war is declared.[4]
Designation
Civil–military administrations are created by the president in territories where a locally elected government (such as that of a municipality, council, or rural council) cannot exercise, or withdrew from the implementation of their constitutionally guaranteed powers.[3]
These administrations will continue to exercise their authority until the day that the newly elected respective local government units are inaugurated into office. In the case that a civil–military administration is formed on the basis of that of an oblast or raion state administration, the administrations will continue to exercise their authority as long as the anti-terrorist operation is being conducted.[3]
