Omelyan gets his choo-choo’s back – Ukrzaliznytsya

In early August an entry appeared relating to Ukrzaliznytsya and the bitter relationship between Minister of Infrastructure Volodymyr Omelyan, and then CEO of Ukrzaliznytsya, Wojcheich Balchun.  The entry predicted the immediate demise of Mr Balchun – and sure enough five days later he resigned from his post whilst outside Ukraine.

However, as that entry made clear, Mr Balchun was not the only Ukrzaliznytsya related irritant that seemed to severely irk the Infrastructure Minister.

As the above linked entry states, 18th January 2017 saw the Cabinet of Ministers remove Ukrzaliznytsya from the Ministry of Infrastructure and place it under the collective responsibility of the Cabinet, nominally under the Ministry of Economic Development.
