(MENAFN- UkrinForm) The government has resumed the competitive selection process for the supervisory board of JSC Ukrzaliznytsia (Ukrainian Railways), which had been suspended with the introduction of martial law in Ukraine.

This was reported by the Ministry of Communities and Territories Development on facebook , as conveyed by Ukrinform.

It is noted that the relevant changes were made to the government decree of May 31, 2022, No. 643, "On certain issues of management of state-owned enterprises during the period of martial law."
