KIEV, Sept 28 (Reuters) - Ukraine's government wants to raise 10-12 billion hryvnias ($1.25-1.5 billion) from the sale of its stake in fixed-line monopoly UkrTelecom, the head of the country's privatisation body said on Tuesday.
'We want to get at least 10 billion (hryvnias), preferably 12 billion,' State Property Fund chairman Olexander Ryabchenko told reporters. 'If we could find a buyer at 12 billion we would be happy and would consider it a successful sale.'
