The publication illustrates this figure by comparing it to the cost of approximately 30,000 drones. Parliament has not yet passed the final legislation, so the current criminal provisions remain in force.<\/p>\n<div class=\"news-summary-box\">\n<p><strong>Briefly about the main points<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The WSJ estimates that the sector could generate around $25 million annually.<\/li>\n<li>The sum is being compared to the approximate cost of 30,000 drones.<\/li>\n<li>Bill No. 12191 on the decriminalisation of adult content was rejected by the Rada.<\/li>\n<li>Bill No. 15294 has been adopted in principle and is being prepared for its second reading.<\/li>\n<li>Child pornography remains a separate criminal offence.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>The current regulations remain unchanged, whilst the details are to be set out in amendments<\/h2>\n<p>Bill No. 12191, which proposed amendments to Article 301 of the Criminal Code and the decriminalisation of adult content, was not supported by the Verkhovna Rada at its first reading on 28 May 2026. Another bill \u2014 No. 15294 \u2014 was adopted in principle by MPs on 14 July; it is currently being prepared for its second reading.<\/p>\n<p>During the parliamentary debate, a Member of Parliament <strong>Vladlen Neklyudov<\/strong> stated that the issue of decriminalising content featuring adults should be addressed through amendments. The current Article 301 of the Criminal Code covers certain offences involving pornographic material and provides for imprisonment of between three and seven years for specific aggravated offences. Offences involving child pornography are criminalised separately.<\/p>\n<h2>A tax forecast is not a guaranteed source of funding for procurement<\/h2>\n<p>The estimate of potential revenue is a forecast, not a guaranteed outcome. The comparison of this figure with the cost of approximately 30,000 drones is an illustrative calculation, as the price of UAVs depends on their class, specifications and contractual terms.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/suspilstvo\/u-spravi-pornoofisiv-areshtuvaly-topposadovtsiv-politsii\/\">The repeal of certain criminal prohibitions<\/a> does not, in itself, establish rules for the sector.
