PM: KVV Group allowed to legally operate in Latvia

BC, Riga, 10.09.2014.Print version
The Latvian government is informed that the buyer of Liepajas metalurgs – the Ukrainian company KVV Group – has been associated with former Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych's regime. The company's owner was a member of Yanukovych's Party of Regions, however, he had nothing to do with the money of the Yanukovych regime, Prime Minister Laimdota Straujuma said in an interview with the LNT show "900 sekundes" this morning, informs LETA.

Straujuma said that the government has not received any information from the security services that would prohibit the company from operating in Latvia.

 

According to Straujuma, there is no reason to believe that all business owners who have operated in Crimea, as is the case with KVV Group, are separatists or have anything to do with the current situation in the region.
