Most of the thermal power plants in Ukraine are under the control of the DTEK company, which belongs to the richest man in the country, Rinat Akhmetov. “He really has problems,” notes Alexander Zholud, an analyst at the International Center for Advanced Study. Considering that officials are in no hurry to raise tariffs, it can be assumed that the companies of the country's main oligarch create unbearable working conditions, writes Gazeta.Ru.
Officials do not comment on this information officially. President Petro Poroshenko only states that he intends to de-oligarchize the country. He made this statement after winning the conflict between the governor of the Dnepropetrovsk region, oligarch Igor Kolomoisky. According to rumors, Akhmetov is now actively visiting the presidential administration.
In addition to the state, attention to the richest man in Ukraine is also growing from competitors. Over the past few months, the attacks have become more frequent. For example, the energy supply company Lvovoblenergo (controlled by businessman brothers Igor and Grigory Surkis) in March of this year appealed to the Economic Court of Kiev with a request to invalidate the results of the competition for the privatization of 25% of the energy generating company controlled by Akhmetov, Dniproenergo.
In early March, the special control commission of the Verkhovna Rada on privatization issues announced that it would check the legality of the privatization of Akhmetov’s enterprises - Ukrrudprom, Ukrtelecom, Kyivenergo, oblenergo, etc.
Acorn believes that Rinat Akhmetov will have to sell part of his assets in the electric power industry.
