Andriy Gerus: We stick to our bullishview on Avdiyivka, Bagliy Coke and Yasynivsky Coke. Yasynivsky Coke decreased its production through modernization of coke battery #3. In May YASK started construction of its coke battery #5, which will be launched in April 2009. This battery will increase the plant’s capacity by 30%.
