An attempt to neutralize the electronic declaration system will be made by introducing a zero tax return by the presidential administration, MP from Petro Poroshenko Bloc Serhiy Leschenko said.

“The initiative will be pushed through in the nearest future to make a zero tax returns possible. This will allow legalizing shadow money – money that was earned by dishonest means and then invested in the Ukrainian politics,” he said from the rostrum of the Ukrainian parliament on Friday.

According to the lawmaker, “they want to kill the electronic declaration system” through the introduction of a zero tax return.

“This will happen in the near future. It is a plan hatched in the presidential administration,” the MP said.
