The European Court of Human Rights jurisprudence generally recognises that there is no violation of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms when the state grants the right to a survivor’s pension to spouses and does not grant it to different-sex de facto couples. An analysis of cases Muñoz Díaz v. Spain, Serife Yigit v.

Therefore, it did not create grounds for the existence of legitimate expectation. However, it should be noted that the Court additionally relies on current trends and the degree of consensus between member states. Given the prevalence of de facto couples, this provides a basis for initiating a discussion on granting them in Ukraine the right to a survivor’s pension.
