DPR authorities told how to do business in the republic
Moscow – Kyiv, December 12 (PolitNavigator, Mikhail Stamm) - DPR businessmen will not yet receive compensation for destroyed enterprises; the DPR does not yet have a tax code or its own bank, nor does it have a railway connection. The authorities offer businesses to open correspondent accounts in Russia and promise not to nationalize enterprises. There is no development strategy for the DPR yet, either, but there is a plan to expand the territory of the DPR to the borders of the Donetsk region, so the war is not over. These are the results of the meeting between the republican authorities and businessmen.

The head of the DPR Alexander Zakharchenko, the head of his administration Maxim Leshchenko, the chairman of the People's Council of the DPR Andrei Purgin and the head of the administration's industrial department Yevgeny Lavrenov met with Donetsk businessmen.
The guests were interested in when explosives would begin to arrive at the mines, whether compensation would be paid for damage caused during hostilities, and the prospects for the adoption of a tax code, reports Kommersant.
“We are negotiating with Russian enterprises,” said Lavrenov. “Explosives and fuses for mines from our brothers from Russia will soon be available.”
Businessmen cannot yet count on compensation for damages. “There is no mechanism yet, we will think about how to demand from Ukraine,” said Yevgeny Lavrenov.
According to Purgin, work on the tax code is underway, but the prospects for its adoption are vague. There is no clarity about the creation of their own bank - officials complained about the blockade from Ukraine. For the same reason, the railway service cannot be launched.
When the owner of a pharmacy chain asked whether he could register in Ukraine to receive medications, he was advised to register a correspondent account in Russia.
Maxim Leshchenko assured businessmen that there would be no nationalization of enterprises, and external management by trade union committees would be introduced at factories abandoned by their owners. “The owner who comes and says to bring it back will have to prove to the court why he abandoned the enterprise, the people, and tried to take out the equipment. He must prove that he is worthy of regaining the plant,” said Andrei Purgin.
“The situation in the country is incomprehensible, we do not understand the actions of the Ukrainian authorities, and without understanding there is no strategy,” summed up the head of the DPR, Alexander Zakharchenko. But at the same time he was encouraging: “You have a unique chance to build a new state. You know how to read between the lines: there is a chance to fit into the new state. Many won’t fit in and will never return here.”
In the finale, the miners' representative wished Zakharchenko good luck at the negotiations in Minsk, but asked not to rush to make peace with Ukraine. Zakharchenko replied that there was no talk of a “final end to the war”: the DPR, according to him, should occupy the entire territory of the Donetsk region.
