This was reported by the press service of the lower house of parliament.

On December 22, the State Duma, at a plenary meeting, ratified tax agreements with Cyprus and Luxembourg, increasing the tax on dividends and interest to 15%.

“There remains one more country - the Netherlands ... Therefore, the appropriate denunciation of the agreement between our country and the Netherlands should be made as soon as possible.

We cannot put up when we still have the opportunity to withdraw funds, and companies often use this: a lot of money is evaded from taxation.

Let's put an end to this issue here together as soon as possible, ”Volodin said.

Earlier, economist Anton Shabanov, in an interview with FBA "Economics Segodnya", said that the new agreements between Russia and Cyprus and Luxembourg would remove legal means of tax evasion.
