"Only through joint efforts with our international partners will we be able to speed up the efficient process of selling state assets. In particular, during the meeting, we discussed ways to resolve the crisis situation at the Odesa Portside Chemical Plant and the possibility of solving the problem as soon as possible with the approval of the investment advisor on privatization, Pericles Global Advisory," he wrote on Facebook Thursday.
