Government policy aiming to maintain interests in Sakhalin 2, coordination with trading companies

It was revealed on the 16th that the government has decided to maintain the interests of the oil and natural gas development project "Sakhalin 2" in the Russian Far East. We are coordinating with domestic trading companies that invest in the business. Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a presidential decree to move the business to a new company and put it under control. Whether or not to continue investing is left to the judgment of the Russian side, and it is unclear whether or not the interests can be maintained.
