Syamashka: “Naftan-Palimir” complex to be privatized soon

The privatization of the biggest Belarusian oil-processing and petrochemical complex “Naftan-Palimir” may happen soon.
“Lukoil” or other Russian companies may take part in it. The vice Prime Minister Uladzimir Syamashka has claimed it.

At the same time he noted that almost 100% of the complex’s shares belonged to the state.

According to Syamashka, besides the market privatization, Belarus is going to demand that the investor should provide the complex with raw materials and guaranteed markets. “Russian oil companies satisfy us most of all”, - stressed Syamashka.
