"The transfer of the enterprise, currently owned by the President of Ukraine, to the staff will allow the creation of a people's enterprise on its basis, so that its workers can provide a decent life for their families and the 13,5 refugees from southeastern Ukraine who have arrived in the Lipetsk region," Kisenko wrote in a letter to Poroshenko, according to LRnews.
As PolitNavigator reported, Poroshenko promised to get rid of his commercial assets immediately after being elected president of Ukraine in May 2014. However, at the end of last year he explained: finding investors is problematic. In January 2015, information appeared that negotiations had intensified.
