PoliticsUkraine Considers Legalizing Pornography to Boost Tax Revenue Amid War
Ukraine is considering decriminalizing pornography to formalize the underground industry and generate additional tax revenue amid the ongoing war with Russia. A bill passed its first reading in parliament with a 231-8 vote and is scheduled for a second reading. Currently, pornography production or possession can lead to up to seven years in prison. Legalization could bring an estimated $25 million in tax revenue to help cover military expenses and a $27 billion budget shortfall.
