The Ukroboronprom State Concern expects that central executive power would help to settle the situation with debts at state-owned enterprise (SOE) 61 Communards Shipyard (Mykolaiv).

The press service of the concern reported that at present the enterprise is almost idle, as there is no a decision of the government to compensate expenses of the SOE on maintenance of the unfinished cruiser Ukraine.

"Today, the accounts of the enterprise have been arrested, and the wage arrears are over UAH 58 million. These debts have been accumulated due to the stoppage of refunding of expenses on maintenance of the cruiser," the press service said.

Earlier in August 2017, Ukroboronprom sent its proposals how to settle the situation with the cruiser to the government.

On October 30, Ukroboronprom's top managers asked Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine (NSDC) Oleksandr Turchynov to help settling the situation with the enterprise.
