In the context of deforestation, and this is a survey of nearly 400 thousand hectares, it is difficult to resist, not to disrupt the question of the accusation of the forest in contraband. Accusations of flimsy and quite offensive,-said Volodymyr Bondar, deputy chairman of the state forestry at the IV Congress of Forestry.

The thing is that when developing the dry plantings of the lion part of the trunk goes to the firewood, which, and especially pine, until-that just go nowhere. The annual excess wood-burning wood is 2.9 million cubic meters.

"Forestry, subordinate to the State forestry, adhere to the moratorium and exported exclusively to the export of wood raw material up to 2 m, earning the currency, so necessary state. Of course, according to the famous statement "Who is sinless, let the first stone in me" should not assert this unequivocally, but even possible violations in any way can not have any scale signs, no tangible harm,-said Vladimir Bondar.

He also commented on the statement of the British non-governmental organization, which states that smuggling of forest has grown to 1 billion euros compared to the years past.

"It is difficult that the whole economy of forestry enterprises of Goslisgenism for a year is about 15-17 billion hryvnias-is half a billion euros. That is, all raw materials, if it was realized abroad, would be only half a billion euros. You understand how uncomparable things are,-said Volodymyr Bondar.
