Potash war concluding? Belarus extradites Uralkali CEO to Russia — RT Business:
"Belarus has extradited the CEO of Russia's Uralkali, the world’s largest potash producer, to Moscow in what may be a final step to bring an end to the Russia-Belarus ‘potash war’, state TV said.
Prosecutors have handed over Vladislav Baumgertner to Russian authorities, the national television channel Belarus 1 reported. Uralkali’s chief was being held under house arrest after being detained on August 26.
The decision to extradite Baumgertner was made on Wednesday, the Russian Prosecutor General’s Office said in a statement on Thursday. In Russia, the businessman will be investigated for cutting out its Belarusian fertilizer partner, Belaruskali.
Earlier President Lukashenko said Baumgertner could return to Russia if he repays damages to Belaruskali. "
