The prime minister said it on Tuesday evening at an interview to the national televisions LRT.
"Such an idea was not expressed during the yesterday's conversation," responded Butkevicius to the question if Poles were considering a possibility to sell the plant and if the prime minister had any information about it.
Butkevicius also claimed that during the recent meeting with his counterpart Poland's Prime Minister Donald Tusk he was assured of the interests of Poles in preserving ORLEN Lietuva and continuation of company's activities.
It is estimated that last year ORLEN Lietuva sustained record net losses of USD 94 million.
