Ukraine to increase punishment for smugglers
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Korrespondent] The head of state believes that "the legislation of Ukraine that is loyal to smugglers must be changed."

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy initiates the introduction of punishment in the form of 20 years in prison for smuggling. This was announced on Friday, October 15, by the chairman of the National Security and Defense Council Alexei Danilov during a break between the broadcasts of the political talk show Svoboda Savik Shuster.

Danilov noted that the president considers Ukrainian legislation too loyal to smugglers and proposes to tighten it.

"After we introduced sanctions against smugglers in April, customs revenues to the state budget increased by UAH 47 billion. We would like it to be more, but for now the figure is this. And we will not stop there," he said. Danilov.

Danilov also announced that "certain individuals will lose their positions" in the fight against smuggling.

"This is such a complex legacy, the system is built. It is such an octopus, which is extremely difficult to fight. They all know each other, they have been there for years. And when we took someone by the tail, it’s like a hydra - it grows a new tail," - said the NSDC secretary.

Let us remind you that flight attendants who tried to import contraband iPhones into Ukraine were detained at the Boryspil airport.
