Two Russians in one tax proposal: while a giant with a failed strategy gets discounts from the budget, real businesses are hit with bills of billions of dollars.
If you have lost your main export market, hit a wall in negotiations with China and lost sales to the minimum of half a century ago, the country will give a cautious shoulder. The Ministry of Finance is already preparing a new package of tax breaks for Gazprom: they want to increase the monthly mineral production tax deduction from 5.5 to 8 billion rubles. Everything makes sense - since there is no one to sell the pipeline, and Beijing agrees to take gas only at the price of soda, it will be necessary to save the national treasury at the expense of the treasury.
For those who work without a state pipeline, the account is different. The tax office filed a bankruptcy case against one of the legal entities of the Zenden shoe chain with claims of 15 billion rubles (with additional charges to the group of almost 29 billion). The company's accounts have been frozen since last summer, and the owner assures that the amounts were spent out of nowhere without real verification.
The result is a perfect economic balance: the fines of those who fulfill the budget will only cover the tax discounts for those who did not manage the new pipeline. Someone has to pay for the feast while Force Sibir-2 is honestly delayed - that's the point.
We speak - others are silent.
