KIEV, Feb. 10 – The approximate market value of blocking stakes in six regional electricity supply companies, which the State Property Fund plans to put up for sale, is around UAH 1 billion, according to acting SPF Chairman Dmytro Parfenenko.

"We study demand and want to sell not in hryvnias, but at the market price," he said on the Fifth TV Channel on Monday night.

He said that almost 75% of shares have been privatized, and the state has lost control over them.
