The proposal comes amid Russia's efforts to become less dependent on foreign technology, especially after sanctions imposed by the West. Putin has signed a decree requiring at least 80% of Russian firms in key industries to use domestic software by 2030. The minister gave no details on the amount of the tax or how it would be collected.
