Why is Donald Trump against digital tax that Poland wants to introduce? – He just cares about the interests of American companies such as Google, Netflix and other Big Techy. However, in digital tax, including Polish digital tax, it is not only about American companies, but also about Chinese and others – explained Zalewski.
The journalist said that he would expect a very similar attitude from the Polish government and the Polish president, if not the same. ” – I hope that Karol Nawrocki will also be in favor of taking care of Polish interests, because it is Polish interest that digital tax on revenues obtained in Poland is paid in Poland and that Big Techs also pay this tax in Poland. The problem is that Big Techy, such as Google, Amazon, but also Chinese gigant, and we are run by companies, but taxes pay negligible, if at all, he explained.
The program pointed out that this is once again when there is discussing digital tax in Poland. – Unfortunately, I am afraid that there will be a replay of entertainment. Let me just remind you that the entire European Union wanted to introduce digital tax. Then the European Union withdrew from it. It was during the rule of Prime Minister Morawiecki. (…) He claimed that such a tax is needed, that it is correct. However, it did not succeed – said the journalist.
– I am afraid that what President Trump is currently saying, that digital tax or additional duties, unfortunately, can also work on Polish politicians and I'm afraid that this tax simply will not be. Although it should be because he is right – summed up the expert.
