As LETA was informed by LDz, even though there is good everyday cooperation between the two rail companies, the two CEOs discussed the possibility of renewing the Latvia-Russia working group of rail companies, so that cooperation matters can be dealt with even more effectively.
''This was the first introductory meeting, which was very constructive and concentrated on business activities. We discussed and highlighted the matters that need our attention and where we need to work together – both in cargo and passenger transport. This work will now continue on the expert level. It is important to point out that the CEO of Russian Railways expressed interest in promoting mutually beneficial cooperation. I am confident LDz can offer the right solutions and best conditions for cooperation,'' Berzins said.
During the meeting, the market situation in the region was discussed, cooperation in cargo and passenger transport, as well as increasing the capacity of the East-West rail corridor.
The two CEOs also agreed to meet again in the coming months.
