The Board of Directors of Railway Transport (ŽPCG) at today's session did not replace the current executive director Ilinka Pavićević and made a decision to announce a public competition to fill those positions.

"It was decided that she would first request a report on the work, which she would submit as soon as possible," the Board of Directors told "Vijesti".

Today, "Vijesti" published the official statement of the president of the Board of Directors, Tripko Draganić, who said that the decision on the dismissal of the current executive director and the announcement of a new competition were on the agenda, and that the recommendation of the Minister of Transport and Maritime Affairs, Filip Radulović, to elect a new management would be respected. .

In connection with this position, a statement was sent today from the Ministry of Transport, in which it is stated that this department did not demand from the new Board of Directors of ŽPCG to immediately announce a public competition for the election of the new executive director of that company.

The Ministry pointed out that what the Minister of Transport and Maritime Affairs Filip Radulović said earlier is that the new Board of Directors should review the responsibility of the Executive Director Ilinka Pavićević because all five electric trains were out of service during February.

"The position of the Ministry of Transport and Maritime Affairs is that you should first look at all the circumstances and the possible responsibility of the management of that company, and then make any decisions, and not discuss anyone's dismissal at the first session of the newly formed Board of Directors. Also, everyone is well aware that the Ministry cannot, in any way, influence the work of the Board of Directors of any company. They should be professional and independent in their work," the announcement concludes.

At the beginning of February, due to the fact that all five electric trains were out of service, Radulović demanded the resignation of the then complete board of directors of ŽPCG, which included Mirsad Veliu, Željko Miladinović, Dragoljub Radošević, Miralem Redžepagić and Marko Bertanjoli. On that occasion, he also met with Pavićević, and after the meeting he stated that when the new board of directors arrives, they will examine the responsibility of Pavićević and do a complete analysis of the company's operations so far.

Pavićević was appointed as the executive director of this railway company in May last year.
