Zelensky underlined in his speech the decision & # 8220 ;important & # 8221; adopted today by the government of Ukraine to overcome the winter period: “the import of necessary goods during the heating season will be exempt from VAT and import duties”.
This is intended to “reduce” the cost of supplying Ukraine with generators, batteries, transformers and other equipment for the supply of energy and heat, he explained.
