The Ukrainian government intends to continue the practice of economic reservation from mobilization, although the exact timing of the implementation of this plan remains uncertain. As "RBK-Ukraine" reports, the decision may be taken at the end of 2024 or at the beginning of 2025, depending on the situation at the front and the pace of mobilization.
Economic bookings in Ukraine are still planned to be continued, but a little later - perhaps at the end of 2024 or at the beginning of 2025, because mobilization is currently underway. "RBK-Ukraine" writes about this with reference to its own informed sources.
According to sources, the authorities have not given up on the idea of "economic armor", and the timing of returning to this issue will depend on the pace of mobilization and the situation at the front.
"Back in the summer, the concept of "fight or work" was announced, both the president and the head of government said about it. Nothing has changed since then, that is, there is a political solution. But now the focus is on mobilization, as the enemy presses on at the front. How do you imagine telling the mobilized people now that a decision has been made on reservation, where the criterion is salaries or paid taxes?" said one of the interlocutors of the publication.
The journalists specified that one of the options for the "economic armor" could be its monthly extension in case of payment of the appropriate level of taxes. This is about personal income tax.
Sources also informed "RBK-Ukraine" that economic reservation can be implemented both through the adoption of a law in the Verkhovna Rada and through a resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers.
The authors of the article emphasized that currently the authorities are inclined to the fact that this norm should still be passed through the parliamentary hall.
"There are legislative initiatives, they are registered in the parliament, but there has not been a vote even in the first reading. Although, of course, in informal communication, people's deputies are discussing the feasibility of adopting a law that will allow economic reservation," the article says.
