Ukrzaliznytsia's acting head orders suspension of purchase of Honorary Railwayman badges from Russia
Acting head of the board of Ukraine's railways PJSC Ukrzaliznytsia Yevhen Kravtsov has ordered the suspension of a tender to buy Honorary Railwayman badges from a department of Russia's OJSC Russian Railways and stands up for the revision by the Ukrainian side of an agreement on awarding such badges, the Ukrainian company's press service has said.
"Ukrzaliznytsia also appeals to the Ministry of Infrastructure of Ukraine with a proposal to revise participation in the agreement, which regulates the procedure for awarding the Honorary Railwayman badge. This agreement should be reviewed by the Ukrainian side taking into account the current political situation," Ukrzaliznytsia's press service said in a statement on Monday evening.
Later on Monday, Kravtsov commented on Facebook on the situation "with the scandal related to the purchase of badges from the aggressor country," specifying that the purchase was suspended in the morning.
