The Podgorica Aluminum Plant (KAP), once an industrial giant in Montenegro, now resembles a ghost town, its workforce cut to one-fifth of its former strength. The plant is at the center of a
dispute between the Montenegrin government and KAP's Russian shareholder, which is owned by Kremlin-friendly oligarch Oleg Deripaska. The Russian shareholder is now suing the Montenegrin government over lost profits from the failing plant.
