Beside that, he said, Ukraine has a "legal shadow economy."
"We have a legalized shadow economy - the economy allowed not to pay taxes by different parliamentary decisions through special taxation mechanisms," the ex-minister noted.
He explained that thus, the sector having to pay taxes must seek for opportunities not to pay them, because it cannot compete.
At the same time, he says "the indexes of decline in the fourth quarter will be much lower than in the first and second."
