Below is an extract from the translation Bugsy posted on 14 February. Maybe the headline came from this bit? The state and lawsuits are mentioned throughout the interview, but skim reading it I cannot see anything about surrendering to the state.
11) Ask about the payroll debt you have accumulated in Georgia. How long has the extraction work been suspended and how much debt do you owe to the employees?
"Some say 11 months, some say 14 months, some say 8 months - none of these figures are correct. There is some debt to some employees for a few months. The
company was ready to sue the state without a lawsuit showing a very bad angle." Georgia in terms of investment attractiveness.
As if the government had agreed to all of this, negotiations have been going on intensively for the last 4 months, perhaps even more so, even when we were negotiating with the state, we did not ask those employees to resign in the hope that we would sign the agreement and continue our usual routine.
But at the last moment, the state refused to agree. Because of this expectation, when we didn't ask employees, we owed them debt.
Also, the state does not pay the VAT we collected. It must compensate for the paid VAT, which is already several million.
Because of all this [the employees] have created this situation. However, we have long been offering our employees the option to repay the debt they have for several months. But here, too, in some cases, the state, in some cases, other people associated with the government, are announcing these people and calling for action.
still have not signed up for this staff to the agreement, which resulted in the need to start for several months to make payments, but the Ministry of Economy and some MPs to encourage them not to do that. "
