The recent war in Ukraine (openly started by the Russian Federation on February 24, 2022, and constituting an escalation of ongoing actions from 2014) once again showed that slavery did not disappear, it only took on a modern camouflage. The Internet has replaced the old slave markets, human traffickers have gone underground. But it is still one of the most lucrative practices practiced all over the world. The International Organization for Migration (IOM) has recorded numerous cases of sexual violence against women and children trying to cross the border from Ukraine to Poland. Criminals take advantage of their victims by impersonating people offering transport or accommodation. La Strada International, the European platform of anti-trafficking NGOs, also states in its recent report that while it is too early to determine the scale of human trafficking related to the war in Ukraine, “there is already evidence of its activities.” The paper presents an analysis of the impact of Russian aggression on the migration of people from Ukraine and the threat of modern human trafficking. Keywords: human trafficking, Ukraine, Russia, war.

The European Green Deal is an attempt to transform the European Union's economy in order to achieve climate neutrality by 2050. This is to counteract undesirable climate change and environmental degradation. In this context, an interesting question is the role of new technologies in the implementation of the European Green Deal. In order to be able to answer this research question, this study is divided into few parts. The first one is an introduction to the analysed issues. The second part presents the basic assumptions of the European Green Deal. The third part presents how new technologies can help in the implementation of European Green Deal strategy. The study ends with a summary containing the conclusions of the conducted research.
