“I propose for those who withdraw their income in the form of dividends to foreign accounts, to provide a tax rate on such dividends of 15%,” the head of state said.
He emphasized that this would require adjustment of double taxation agreements with a number of countries, and asked the government to organize such work.
As Putin noted, if foreign partners do not accept the proposals of the Russian side, then it will withdraw from the agreements unilaterally.
The Russian leader also made a proposal to increase unemployment benefits.
