Open letter to ArcelorMittal Director of Krivoy Rog, Ukraine

Mr. Longobardo, we ask you, as the official representative of ArcelorMittal Corporation in Krivoy Rog, to give a public explanation on the media reports, about the takeover by ArcelorMittal, one of the largest steel producers in the world, of Russia's steel supply in June 2022, through the Kazakh ArcelorMittal plant, located in Temirtau, although before that date, in May, the company announced the cessation of steel exports to the aggressor country.

How is it possible that at a time when the whole world and many global "brands" refuse to cooperate with a country that has unleashed a war of invasion in the center of Europe in the twenty-first century, whose goal is the destruction of Ukrainians, Ukrainians and all things Ukrainian, the international company ArcelorMittal, whose workers at its Krivoy Rog factory are courageously defending our Ukraine on the front lines and unfortunately perish, continues to trade with the Russian occupier, to earn bloodstained money?

Yuri Petrovich Samoilov
President of the Independent Union of Miners of Ukraine, Krivoy Rog section.
