Lietuvos Gelezinkeliai (Lithuanian Railways, LG), the country’s state-owned railway company, is awaiting a conclusion of the Lithuanian government commission vetting deals of strategic companies, and only afterwards the company will announce its plan how its existing contract on the transit of Belarusian fertilizers via Lithuania will be terminated, says Kestutis Sliuzas, board chairman of the railway company.

“We already have scenarios now and the one we will activate will depend on the commission’s conclusion as, as we know, it is wide-covering. We do expect to see a clear direction for action,” he told a press conference on Thursday.

Sliuzas expects the fertilizer transit via Lithuania to be terminated by April after the government decision.

“I cannot say specifically right now but I would assume it might be done faster,” Sliuzas said.
