Putin asks government, Bashkortostan leadership to deal with Bashkir Soda Company issues

Moscow, Aug 26 (Sputnik) Russian President Vladimir Putin instructed the Russian government, together with the leadership of Bashkiria, to deal with the situation around Bashkir Soda Company (BSC).
On August 15 and 16, local residents and environmental activists protested near the Kushtau shihan, one of four unique limestone hills that symbolize the central Russian republic, against BSC mining in the area. The head of the republic, Radi Khabirov, promised that all the work on the mountain would be suspended until a compromise is found.
"It does not seem that the goal of shareholders today is the long-term development of this company, it is similar to something else — to pump out funds at any cost and in as large amount as possible. I ask the Russian government, together with the leadership of the republic, to study the situation in detail, to propose a solution," Putin said at a meeting with members of the government.
