Steel

Although I still continue the drug story, I started an essay on the steel industry in Ukraine. It's Ukraine's major industry, but it's been struggling due to competition with cheaper Chinese and Russian counterparts. Many workers have been laid off or work only a few times a week. Meanwhile, some small old factories somehow thrive and operate as they have been doing for a century. This old steel smelting factory produces sewer material like manhole covers.
