Pravda does not mention that the coalition reached no agreement on abolishing tax exemptions, which limits the picture of what was actually decided.

Pravda's headline speaks of taxing energy companies' 'profit' in general, whereas the trusted reports describe a windfall (excess-profit) tax, and the headline implies a finished decision rather than a scheme still to be prepared.

Pravda says
“The Council of the ruling coalition agreed to tax the profits of energy companies.”
