“The leader of the so-called “DPR” Pushilin announced plans to bring the Mariupol seaport to full capacity in the coming years. The Russians hope to export about 12 million tons per year of metal, coal, grain. Everything that the Russians can steal in the occupied territories,” the city council reports.
