KHARKIV, April 5 – The lawsuit of the Justice Ministry to recover UAH 705 million from the Lysychansk oil refinery, which is owned by Rosneft, is not politically motivated, Deputy Director of the judicial work and bankruptcy department of the Justice Ministry Ihor Bahno said.

"This issue does not absolutely involve politics. It has no political motivation whatsoever. It is based on significant legal grounds without bias. It is always necessary to be responsible for our debts, including debts to the state. So we are determined to prove our position and go to the end," Bahno said at a briefing in Kharkiv on Wednesday.
