That's why people were burned in Odessa: Yatsenyuk puts all ports up for sale
Kiev
The list of strategic enterprises put up for sale, following the example of privatization in the 1990s, published by the Ukrainian government, includes 7 ports in the Odessa region. This seems to be the reason why why Kyiv fought to maintain control over Southern Palmyra, regardless of human casualties.
Deputy of the Odessa City Council Igor Dimitriev writes about this on his page.

“The Ukrainian government included Ukrainian seaports in the list of enterprises put up for sale. This is, in fact, the main result. As expected - the land market and the privatization of energy enterprises and ports. That's it, the project is closed. That's why there was a fight for Odessa. Odessa is not a subject of Ukrainian politics, but a prey. Of the thirteen ports, seven are in the Odessa region: the three are Odessa, Yuzhny, Ilyichevsk and four in the south - Izmail, Reni, Vilkovo and Belgorod. Plus two half-dead shipping companies, Danube and Cherazmorput,” – writes the deputy.
“Russian investors, who theoretically may be interested in the operation of some ports, will not participate in the auction. And in general, sell the largest infrastructure enterprises in a recession... Unless for the purpose of resale. For example, the same Russians. Don't listen to stories about investments, they won't happen.
The Ukrainian elite, like a drug addict, writhes and takes out of the house everything that can be sold. And then the parents go to the neighbors and return them. This is what I mean... To the point that we will have to wring out everything that you take out of the house. Not the best investment,” warns Dimitriev.
