«I assume that with regard to our tax system and the moratorium, which was announced in the Address [to the Federal Assembly] will apply this model law banning turn for the worse, it is not to increase taxes, but it is possible to reduce them, “- Medvedev said.

For a possible reduction in tax regions or the federal government should” come to the conclusion that kakoy- the tax must be somewhat reduced. ” In this case, call the tax that the authorities are willing to reduce now, he found it difficult to name. “It is unlikely that you can call the tax, which is now ready to cut positions against those who are. But nothing is impossible, if the situation will be corrected, why not? “- He said.

Also, Medvedev said, and other initiatives that have been made in the President’s message to the Federal Assembly. Thus, according to the Prime Minister, Amnesty capital pursues in the first place, not a return of capital, and getting their taxes and their declaration. “We did not set until necessarily aim to return capital to Russia itself. The idea is that they are declared, and, if so decided, they were paid with taxes, “- said the Prime Minister.

With this money will actually return to their country or not, will depend on many factors. “To a large extent a refund on the territory of the Russian Federation will depend on what the financial and economic situation in our country. It’s true. And how things go with sanctions, how things go with the oil, what will all the macroeconomic situation in our country. This is true absolutely, “- Prime Minister added.

According to him, the ruble has already passed through the crisis, after which again strengthened. “We need a little patience and look at how events will unfold, because we have been through crises, and, ultimately, still occurs rebound, the ruble strengthened. So now the most important thing is not to fuss, just look to the future. I’m sure everything will be fine “- he said.

On the tax freeze, Russian President Vladimir Putin said in his message to the Federal Assembly on December 4, 2014. “Entrepreneurs rightly speak of the need for stable legislation and predictable rules, including taxes. Could not agree more. I offer the next four years to fix the existing tax environment and this issue is no longer to return, not to change them, “- said Putin. In addition, it is designed to give small businesses a new two-year tax holiday. “We also get the benefits of production, starting from scratch,” – the president added.

The next day, Putin called the economic part of the message “main signal” to support the business. “The message was focused mainly on the development of the economy, the main signal is that in today’s conditions, we do not make a choice in the direction of additional and often ineffective regulation, although it is certainly necessary. But the main choice – it is certainly free enterprise, “- he said.

December 5, the Russian government also received a commission from President Vladimir Putin to introduce from 1 January 2016 as a” supervisory vacation. ” As part of them will act ban on checks of small businesses, which “at the end of the preceding three years revealed no significant violations of the requirements established by the legislation of the Russian Federation, except in cases of violations that endanger the life and health of citizens.” Instruction should be executed until the middle of July 2015.

On the same day, Putin ordered the government until July 15 to prepare and Act “offshore amnesty.” The Cabinet will have to amend the law to allow for a “one-time release of Russian officials from the tax and criminal liability, provided the return of the said persons in the Russian jurisdiction previously derived by them in foreign jurisdictions without paying the appropriate taxes income derived from sources in the Russian Federation.”
