Agreements with Naftogaz worth over $60 million

In September, Naftogaz signed a memorandum with the Czech company MND, providing for potential participation in three gas extraction projects. The total volume of investments in these initiatives amounts to over 60 million US dollars. To implement these plans, MND must undergo a competitive selection procedure.

Memorandum signed by the head of Lviv OVA

An important aspect of the situation is that on 19 February, Maksym Kozitskyi, who holds the position of head of the Lviv Regional Military Administration, personally signed a cooperation memorandum. The parties to the agreement were the same Czech MND and LLC "MND Tynivske".

Link to father's business and transparency issues

The beneficial owners of LLC "MND Tynivske" are the official's father — Zynoviy Kozitskyi — as well as the Czech billionaire Karel Komarek. Thus, the head of the regional administration officially agreed on creating conditions for investments together with business structures belonging to his own father.

At present, it remains unclear whether Maksym Kozitskyi reported the existence of a potential conflict of interest and whether this was resolved in accordance with the requirements of anti-corruption legislation.
