Tusk: VAT fraud connected with common European market

The intrinsic nature of VAT frauds is connected with the common European market and the way in which VAT is settled within the EU, former Prime Minister Donald Tusk argued during his hearing before the VAT investigation committee.

“The situation that took place in Poland is also taking place today in many other European Union countries ... That is why it is difficult to talk about VAT fraud as a specific event of an extremely massive intensity. I am afraid  that we will see such events in our country, as well as in the EU, in the future,” Tusk said.
