“In principle, without the approval of the board of directors, yes. I think we will make more than 40,000 (vehicles),” he said.
In Russia, Kamaz plans to sell around 35,000–36,000 vehicles, he added.

Separately, Vadim Shvetsov, the main owner and chairman of the board of directors of car maker Sollers, said that the project to create an alliance between Sollers group and Kamaz is in the process of restart, and the takeover of the company is not being discussed within its framework.
“The pandemic was a big hindrance, we could not just physically meet, because the alliance process still requires live communication, not video. Therefore, we are now at the stage of restarting the project – the future will show,” Shvetsov said.
