“Of the support measures that have been implemented, many really turned out to be very important, many entrepreneurs took advantage of them,” the Kremlin’s website quoted Titov as saying.
At the same time, he noted that some additional measures are needed.
“The entrepreneurs said that it would be a very important measure for today to get an extension for those measures that require a return,” Titov said.
In his opinion, it is necessary to extend the program of concessional loans for the resumption of activities by the end of 2020 and soften its conditions, namely, to completely write off loan arrears while maintaining at least 80% of the state as of June 1, 2020, and 50% write-off while maintaining 70% of the state.
The Ombudsman also proposed to the President to write off the arrears on all taxes and insurance premiums, as well as arrears on fines and fines accrued on this arrears, formed as of November 1, 2020.
