Gents,
Hope, all is well. Here is a short summary re USAID/Burisma project in
Donetsk region, eastern Ukraine. US Ambassador Geoffrey R Pyatt met Donetsk
region governor Mr Zhebrivsky in October.

During the meeting, the Governor expressed his concern about shortage of
gas supplies in the region, due to the fact that the bigger part of gas
network was destroyed following military operations in the region.

Following that, USAID contacted Burisma in Kyiv, and I had a few
communications, including a meeting with Mr Jed Burton, USAID Director in
Ukraine and Mr Stephen Goneya Director for USAID Economic Growth office.

During this meeting, Burisma expressed its willingness to contribute and
assist in restoring gas pipelines. Burisma also suggested to launch a pilot
project in Donetsk region on restoring a certain village,including its
roads, buildings, communal services, etc. The technical part of the process
between USAID, Burisma and Donetsk regional administration is under way
now.

Best,

Vady
