The Polish infrastructure minister, Dariusz Klimczak, maintains that PKP Cargo will not go bankrupt. The company is “too important”, he says. The minister already sees improvements at the company.
“I would like to reassure all those who are worried about the PKP Cargo company. The company has no right to go bankrupt and will not go bankrupt. It is too important, the legal conditions do not allow for such a situation to occur. Quite the opposite, the company is on the right track”, Klimczak said.
