Razvozhayev seeks relief Crimea taxes and mortgages

About this event

Council debates regional budget relief

Oct 5

Razvozhayev describes unresolved summer difficulties and asks to extend Resolution 1072 contribution deferrals for agriculture, construction, trade and industry to year-end, matching tourism/catering, with twelve-month installments next year. He says logistical and economic constraints leave housing unsold and seeks a six-percent Crimean mortgage, a six-month application window and fifteen-year repayment. He requests November 1, 2026 instead of the potential January 2027 start, explicitly leaving a final decision pending. He also proposes regional budget loans of at least five years at three percent to replace expensive commercial credit. Matviyenko urges Siluanov's personal attention to Crimea and Sevastopol. No mortgage, deferral extension or loan allocation is approved.

Regional participants seek predictable and larger aid, inflation-adjusted grants, broader treasury loans, easier deficit/debt rules and further write-offs. Matviyenko urges debt monitoring and fair funding of regional responsibilities; Teksler, Martynov, Shumkov, Korolyov, Chibis, Khotsenko and Abramov provide regional experience and proposals. Siluanov describes existing transfers, debt relief and loans, cautions against commercial debt and insists on balanced budgets and recovery programmes, offering specified compromises and resource-dependent support. This connected hearing debate does not adopt the requested blanket relaxation or debt cancellation.
