Ex-mayor of Lviv Bunyak decries appointment of chance person to responsible position

Bunyak reminded that he had graduated from a Moscow institute, majoring in oil/gas pumping. All key jobs in the filed were taken by honest professionals with clean records. Now, unworthy and chance persons without any professional training are appointed. How can such managers run their companies? As a result, Ukraine is sliding toward a collapse. The present appointment is a clear manifestation of this, Bunyak complained.

Formerly, the Druzhba Company encompasses pipelines running through 7 Ukraine’s oblasts. Druzhba was mighty enough to build the 700-km long Odesa-Brody pipeline, the oil terminal in Odesa and other infrastructure. Later, the high-rollers in Kyiv decided to make the Lviv-based Druzhba a branch company. They did it to control the cash flow. It amounted to the destruction of the company. As a result, Druzhba ran up huge debts, Bunyak went on. .

According to Druzhba Lviv branch manager Leonid Melnyk, the head of Our Ukraine faction in the Lviv Oblast council Taras Batenko wa appointed his deputy manager Aug. 5. “As I’m on sick leave at the moment, Batenko takes over from me for the time being,” Melnyk confirmed.

Melnyk also said the decision to appoint Taras Batenko was made in Kyiv.
