“Metinvest has been working for Ukraine for 20 years now—and no matter the circumstances, we have never strayed from a simple principle: to operate transparently and pay taxes. War and crises change the rules of the game, but not our responsibility to the country. Today, taxes provide real support to the military, healthcare, and the people. We will continue to work to support the country now and prepare for its future recovery,” said Yuriy Ryzhenkov, CEO of Metinvest Group.

As a reminder, in 2025, Metinvest paid 18.7 billion UAH in taxes and fees to budgets at all levels in Ukraine. In total, over more than four years of full-scale invasion, including the first quarter of 2026, the group has allocated approximately 78 billion UAH to support the country’s economy.

As reported by GMK Center, in 2025, Ukraine’s largest iron and steel companies paid $0.9 billion in taxes.
