kremlin.ru | Administration of the President of RussiaNew People Party leader Alexei Nechaev has briefed Russian President Vladimir Putin on his proposal to conduct a “special economic operation”. We are talking about increasing duties on goods from hostile countries.Nechaev said smart suppliers would rather pay duties in Russia than pay taxes in Western countries. According to his calculations, this should redirect business income from Western budgets to that of Russia.”We will take money from the budgets of hostile countries and slip it into our budget – we will carry out a ‘special economic operation’,” he said.The Head of State supported this proposal, but stressed that it should not cause an increase in consumer prices.
