KYIV, Sept 13 – Billionaire Ihor Kolomoisky, a political backer of President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, said he hopes to reach an amicable agreement with the government over controversial nationalization of his Privatbank two years ago.

"We declared that we do not want disasters, but we only want a legal assessment and after that – an amicable agreement, a way out of this situation. We do not need a bank at any cost," he said on the sidelines of the 16th YES conference organized by the Victor Pinchuk Foundation in Kyiv on Friday.
