Press reports quoting a conversation between Minister of Fuel and Energy Plachkov and Head of the President's secretariat Rybachuk state there are Ukrainian citizens lurking behind RosUkrEnergo.

Update: Today PM Yekhanurov in the VR denied there are Ukrainian citizens amongst the founders of RUE..
