Prime Minister Vladimir Putin holds a meeting on tax legislation related to transfer pricing
Speaking about transfer pricing, Vladimir Putin noted that, unfortunately, these issues are not effectively regulated in Russia. He said amendments to the Tax Code are necessary to protect the state’s interests, but they must be made “extremely cautiously, carefully.”
“We have many interesting projects and bilateral plans with good prospects,” Mr Putin said during his meeting with the Brazilian vice president.
“Brazil is a strategic partner for Russia, and we have maintained a traditionally friendly dialogue.”

According to the prime minister, the idea behind the new agency is to allow young talents to translate their ideas and projects into reality. "Positive experience in working as an independent professional will be the key selection criterion," said Mr Putin.
