| Ukraine must
create several major world-class players in sectors such as titanium, ferroalloys
and nuclear fuel cells, Prime Minister Yuriy Yekhanurov said on February
25 at a meeting with students and faculty of the Poltava Consumer Cooperation
University.
"We plan to create several serious,
international-level companies. These will be the Atomprom corporation for
the nuclear fuel cycle, and a corporation in the titanium sector, where
Ukraine has serious reserves. In the ferroalloys sector, it will be the
Antonov corporation," Yekhanurov said.
Ukraine also needs to create several
other such corporations that could compete in certain niches on the international
market, he said. "We should find a few other such corporations, so that
we would have 10- 15 world-class corporations," he said.
A decision will soon be made on the
merger of four power engineering companies in Kharkiv, Yekhanurov added.
