The office noted that the state is not obliged to pay compensation instead of private companies.

“Because, according to article 152 of the Civil code of Ukraine joint stock company is independently responsible for its obligations, and given the fact that the state did not assume obligations to make any payments to the shareholders of JSC “MMM”, information on the implementation of the specified payments, the Finance Ministry is false.
