On Wednesday, 14 October 2020, the criminal proceedings were instituted in relation to the fact of the attack on me and Roman Kukharuk, the General Director of Commercial Port of Vladivostok PJSC (the “Port”), in Vladivostok (case no. 12001009406000394 dated 14 October 2020).
I want to emphasize that we are still convinced that this attack was planned and carried out by people who were not related to the trade union and the workers of the Port. I especially would like to note that we know who is guilty of involving conscientious and concerned employees in illegal actions in pursuit of their goals. There are facts of arbitrariness and attempts of illegal seizure of the management of the company. All this information has been transferred to the law enforcement authorities and will be given a legal assessment.Nevertheless, we are sure the employees who were deceived and yielded to the provocation will not be adversely affected.
We highly appreciate the contribution of the Port's workers to the financial and production achievements of the company and intend to fulfill all social obligations to our employees.
I encourage each of you to assess the situation rationally and not to fall to manipulations, and most importantly to act within the legal framework.
Sincerely,
Arkady Korosteljov
President of FESCO Transportation Group
