Attilio Befera, direttore generale dell'Agenzia delle Entrate

The National Direction of the Internal Revenue Agency (Direzione Nazionale dell'Agenzia delle Entrate) overturned a preceding legal opinion, and with total servility to the demands of the tobacco multinationals, saved Logista S.p.A. from a deserved bankruptcy, granting to this foreign company privileges that are even greater than those of the Italian State Monopolies.

Yesmoke will appeal to the European Court of Justice, because the most elementary tax rules have been violated, and our country will certainly be convicted under European law.

Between the minimum price and the Value Added Tax on tobacco, the interests of the multinational  manufacturers have been safeguarded, openly violating the law and damaging Italian companies.
