“I understand that there are certain consequences, and I ask Anton Germanovich (Siluanov. - RT) not to hurry with this,” the head of state quoted TASS.

Speaking at the congress of the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs, he noted that we are not talking about a draft law, but only about one of the ideas of the Ministry of Finance.

“Nothing has yet been formulated definitively,” he stressed, adding that the government and the Ministry of Finance should work together with the business community.

In the summer of 2018, the Ministry of Finance proposed to introduce an environmental tax. The ministry noted that replacing the environmental tax with an environmental tax would not increase business expenses for payments for a negative impact on the environment.

Expert Ildar Neverov commented on the NSN proposal of the Ministry of Finance.
