MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Russian First Deputy Energy Minister Alexei Teksler said earlier this week that Chinese investors were interested in buying Rosneft shares.
"Yes, we are considering this," CNPC’s Wang Zhongcai told journalists, adding the company had set up a working group to look into the matter.
Under the state privatization plan, Rosneft is expected to privatize 19.5 percent of its state shares by the end of this year. The Russian government controls 69.5 percent of the shares.
