The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine offers additional taxes on Russian goods in the international market: details

Government head Denis Shmigal said that they are already discussing the possibility of imposing additional taxes on goods that the Russian Federation sells in the world. Ukraine, together with the allies, discusses the possibility of introducing additional tax on goods that Russia sells in the world markets. Prime Minister Denis Shmigal announced this in his Telegram channel. He stressed that the work on the confiscation of frozen assets of the Russian Federation continues.

In addition, it has already been able to create an international loss register. The creation of the International Compensation Commission and the Compensation Fund is separately envisaged. Separately, the World Bank's Statistics have been setting up, according to which at least $ 486 billion is required to rebuild Ukraine.

As of now, about 300 billion has already been frozen, so Kyiv is currently offering partners to discuss the prospect of introducing additional taxation of Russian goods that the Russian Federation sells in international markets to direct this tax to the Ukrainian budget. The Prime Minister is convinced that confiscation should touch not only sovereign assets, but also assets belonging to Russian oligarchs.

Ukraine may be expected to receive the first billions of income from frozen assets of the Russian Federation, including assets at the Belgian company Euroclear in the summer of this year. However, in order to receive these funds, Ukraine must enlist the support of all EU member countries. The relevant proposal on this issue will be published during this week.
