Subject-matter experts in judicial and police cooperation from the six EAP countries Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Republic of Moldova and Ukraine – assisted by representatives of partner countries and organisations – will carry out a detailed review of the procedures and institutions related to international cooperation on cybercrime and electronic evidence.
