YEREVAN, January 16. /ARKA/. The full capital amnesty announced by Russian President Vladimir Putin contradicts the principles of FATF (Financial Action Task Force –an intergovernmental organization whose objectives are to set standards and promote effective implementation of legal, regulatory and operational measures for combating money laundering, terrorist financing and other related threats to the integrity of the international financial system), and if Russia puts into practice what it promises, the country will find itself in the FATF black books, Vedomosti newspaper reports referring to officials and experts' opinion.
In his address to the Federal Assembly, Putin promised to grant not only tax, but also full amnesty to capitals.
He said if one legalizes his assets and property in Russia, he will receive firm legal guarantees that he will not be grilled over ways he had got these assets and will not be prosecuted.
