		Ukraine's largest car manufacturer, AO AvtoZAZ, has a capacity of 150000 cars annually, and in the 1970s and 1980s uniformly sold that quantity of Tavriya-brand cars.
		More would be spent clearing AvtoZAZ's debts, and the remaining $1.03 billion would be provided to the joint venture in the form of credit.
		Ukraine's cabinet approved Daewoo's candidacy as AvtoZAZ's partner on 4 June 1997, although the Koreans demanded that all the proposed tax exemptions be enshrined in legislation before things got under way.

		GM continued as an interested party in the tender process, however, and is scheduled to complete a feasibility study concerning the possibility of jointly manufacturing cars with AvtoZAZ in the near future.

		Mityukov's statements follow the postponement of the official signing of the founding documents for the automobile joint venture between Avtozaz and the Korean Daewoo conglomerate.
		(InfoBank, November 27) While Avtozaz officials emphasized that production under the joint venture is proceeding on schedule and that Daewoo has thus far kept all of its financial promises, the correlation between the postponement and the Korean government's request last week for a $20 billion bail out from the IMF may not have been coincidental.
		Korea's economic problems are thought to have left none of its major chaebols (big business conglomerates) untouched, and Daewoo is widely rumored to have overextended itself with its ambitious overseas investment program during the past five years.

	Heeding Daewoo's demand, Ukraine bans imports of older used cars, decrees tariff (03/01/98)
		The only automobile manufactured in Ukraine today is AvtoZAZ's Tavria, which costs about $4,000 new, but is considered of inferior quality.
		The decree will fulfill a key demand that Daewoo made in September 1997 when it signed a $1.3 billion contract with AvtoZAZ of Zaporizhia to jointly produce a minimum of 80,000 upgraded AvtoZAZ Tavria automobiles and 150,000 new Daewoo models annually over a seven-year period.
		The government has calculated that the re-invigoration of the automobile industry in Ukraine will spur the development of a supplier-base of approximately 100 smaller firms generating an additional $711 million in business annually.

		One of the most important effects of the summit is the purchase of 19.9 percent of shares in FSO, a Polish producer of passenger cars, by Ukraine’s AvtoZAZ, which controls one half of the automotive market in Ukraine.
		The purchased stock ensures full control of the car factory, as it gives the holder 84.31 percent of votes at the assembly of FSO stockholders.
		Those contract terms do not come as a surprise, as FSO still has financial burdens after collaboration with the Daewoo Motor corporation that went bankrupt five years ago.

		March was the third month in a row to see a slowdown in year-on-year new car price rises.
