he European Union is not interested in joining the project that must help Ukraine add two energy units at Ukraine’s Khmelnytskyi nuclear power plant, according to Katarína Materna, the head of the EU Delegation to Ukraine. In her interview with European Pravda, she was blunt,
“We were not involved in preparing this draft law. Whether Ukraine decides to build nuclear plants or not is entirely within its government’s prerogative.”
The Ukrainian Parliament is set to review Bill No. 11146 on December 17. It proposes the construction of the two reactors at Khmelnytskyi nuclear power plant, with funding sourced from international donors. Materna though reminded the European Union does not finance nuclear power plant projects, partly because the EU member states still are divided on nuclear energy.
Notorious supporter of the concept “in order for a cow to eat less and give more milk, it needs to be fed less and milked more” “Servant of the People” Danylo Hetmantsev, under the guise of “business requirements”, registered a draft law on the collection of VAT on all foreign purchases, regardless of their value. In other words, every Ukrainian, buying goods of any value and purpose abroad, when sending them to Ukraine, will have to pay an additional fifth part, or 20% of the cost of the goods.
