Russian President Vladimir Putin said that the extension of the capital amnesty will add stability to the Russian business and this step is also supported by international financial institutions.
The president said that the State Duma approved in third reading the package of laws providing for extension of the capital amnesty until February 28, 2019.
"I will not make a secret and many are aware that we consulted on this matter with international financial institutions also. They accept it understandingly and support us in this decision," Putin stressed.
"I expect that this step towards the Russian business will provide extra stability to it, provide new opportunities for those who want to work honestly, in a civilized way and openly, and create enterprises and new jobs," TASS cited the President as saying.
