The Ministry of Infrastructure is studying the possibility of purchasing the first five An-158 aircraft from the state-owned enterprise Antonov (Kyiv), which is part of Ukroboronprom, for the needs of the Ukrainian National Airlines (UNA), the Ministry of Infrastructure has reported on Facebook.
The signing of the relevant contracts is expected in the first or second quarter of next year.
“For Ukrainian National Airlines, the sole owner of which is the state, different classes of aircraft are needed. For regional and medium-haul flights, we are considering the An-158, which is ideal for flights around the country,” Minister of Infrastructure Oleksandr Kubrakov is quoted as saying.
Antonov enterprise expects that the contracts will be signed directly between the State Enterprise and JSC Ukrainian National Airlines.
“The An-158 is an excellent plane with 99 seats. We are ready to build five such planes within the next three years by order of the Ministry of Infrastructure and the National Air Carrier. The first plane will be launched within the first year,” Yuriy Husev, Director General of Ukroboronprom, said.
Ukrainian National Airlines was established in November 2021 on behalf of President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky. Its main task is to develop domestic air transportation, expand the geography of flights for Ukrainians, protect the strategic interests of the state and turn Ukraine into a major European air hub.
Pavlohradvuhillia and Bilozerska mines, which are part of DTEK Energy, produced 15.2 million tonnes of coal in January-November 2021, which corresponds to the same production volume for the same period in 2020, the press service reported.
In November 2021, production amounted to about 1.5 million tonnes against 1.3 million tonnes in November 2020 (excluding Dobropilliavuhillia, already returned from lease).
DTEK Energy commissioned 28 new longwalls at its mines in 11 months, in November – five.
“DTEK Energy continues to produce maximum coal at its own mines. This is very important for the stability of the Ukrainian energy system during peak periods of consumption. In November, we produced about 1.5 million tonnes of G grade coal and put into operation five new longwalls. Also, the Dniprovske and Heroiv Kosmosu mine administrations have fulfilled the annual production plan ahead of schedule and continue to increase it to the maximum,” CEO of the company Ildar Saleev said.
As reported, DTEK Energy plans to ensure the production of about 17 million tonnes of coal in 2021.
DTEK Energy is an operating company responsible for coal extraction and enrichment, maintenance of mine equipment and power generation in the structure of DTEK Holding of Rinat Akhmetov.
One of the key priorities for the development of the Ukrainian economy is to support agriculture through the development of irrigation systems, which will be dealt with by the Ministry of Economy from next year, Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal said.
“Completion of land reform, support for agriculture through the development of irrigation systems. This is the key project, and the Ministry of Economy will be responsible for it from next year, because this project is more about the economy, about increasing the GDP of our country,” he said during the UkraineInvest “MAKE in UA” forum in Kyiv.
As reported, last week Deputy Minister of Economy Denys Kudin at a conference in Kyiv called irrigation of land in southern Ukraine as one of the main infrastructure projects of the government. The first pilot project in this direction will start in 2022. It will cover 200 hectares of land in four southern regions of the country.
A similar opinion was expressed by Minister of Agrarian Policy and Food Roman Leschenko. According to him, the priority for his department in 2022 will be animal husbandry, gardening and land reclamation.
The restoration of the reclamation industry has become a national project until 2024. The Ministry of Agrarian Policy planned in 2021 to launch a pilot project to restore irrigation systems in Odesa, Kherson, Mykolaiv and Zaporizhia regions.
