In 2014, the government announced a "ceasefire" in tax policy, pledging to 2018 not to raise the load. Then it seemed that the tax system is almost completely formed, and Deputy Finance Minister Sergei Shatalov, who is considered the architect of it, can leave with a calm heart. But very soon it became clear that the truce will not last long: in the budget of a huge hole, has already decided to take more taxes from oil companies and "Gazprom", and after 2018 it is possible increase in other taxes. What changes are waiting for the tax system, Shatalov said in an interview with "Vedomosti", and when asked about his possible resignation from the ministry said that it is now before the "very responsible" choice.
