The so-called "DNR government" is ready to transfer 15 mines to anonymous investors. This was announced by the russian official Andrey Chertkov, appointed by the kremlin as the "First Deputy Chairman of the Government", as reported by local media.
According to him, proposals from three investors for six mines have already been considered. These include the Volynske mine management, the mines Shchehlovska-Hlyboka, No. 22 Komunarska, Prohres, Zorya, as well as the Kyivska Central Ore Enrichment Plant, and the equipment manufacturing and repair area of the Zasyadko mine.
Chertkov also stated that negotiations for the privatization or lease of the remaining mines in the "republic" are ongoing with three other investors. However, he refrained from mentioning the names of the investors, noting that they will either announce themselves or be disclosed after all agreements and necessary documents are signed.
The volume of investments that these investors promise to inject into the coal industry in the occupied Donbas was also not disclosed by Chertkov.
