The President of the ULIE calls for publicly naming the names of tax officials who unreasonably harm business by blocking tax invoices or opening unjustified criminal cases.
The names of officials who harm business by blocking tax invoices or unreasonably opening criminal proceedings or seizing accounts should be named. This opinion was expressed by Anatoliy Kinakh, President of the Ukrainian League of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs, in a comment to UNN.
"Not so long ago, I had a meeting with the Prosecutor General on these issues (interaction between government officials, including tax authorities and business - ed.), and I personally suggested to him that since the names of corrupt officials are floating around on the Internet, we should know the names of officials who, by their actions to block tax invoices or unjustified opening of criminal cases, seizure of accounts , harm business. As they say, the state should know its heroes, and this responsibility should be mutual in a just state for which we are fighting," Kinakh said, agreeing that punishment for obstacles to business should be inevitable, and the names of those who harm the national economy should be known to the whole society.
Mr. Kinakh emphasized that in times of war, it is very important to create conditions for the sustainability of the national economy. And it is very important to preserve jobs in order to bring back people who have gone abroad.
He also reminded that in 2023 , Ukraine financed only 45% of its expenditures from its own economy .
He also emphasized that an ongoing dialog between government and business representatives is important in this regard. He noted that the UUIE is working in this area and and that some of their proposals have been taken into account by the tax authorities and , but not all of them.
A memorandum is expected to be signed soon between business representatives and the State Tax Service on cooperation, "on strengthening communication, on dialogue and working on the principle of not courageously fighting a problem when it arises, but overcoming these problems proactively.
