Up to UAH 7 bln to be spent on restoration of Donbas infrastructure in 2016

Chairman of the Donetsk Regional Military and Civil Administration Pavlo Zhebrivsky said this in an exclusive commentary to an Ukrinform correspondent.

"In fact, we open and purchase something every week. Although, I have not yet started the process of using the large funds accumulated within six months of 2015, about UAH 4.5 billion. In addition, we will use the local budgets and private funds. We believe that at least 6.5-7 billion will be invested in the restoration of Donbas infrastructure this year. These means are taken from budget and sponsors, including the international ones," Zhebrivsky said.

According to him, the list of all the facilities which are to be repaired will be announced in the coming days.
