'Imagine if the UK's trains were like that': Rail chief apologises for ONLY having nine in ten trains ON TIME

The head of railways in Ukraine has apologised to passengers — for only having nine in ten of services run ON TIME yesterday.

Alexander Kamyshin took to Twitter this morning (February 21) to reveal some details on how the visit of US President Joe Biden impacted the running of his nation’s railways. President Biden was in Kyiv yesterday, the 362nd day of the war, to visit Ukraine’s President Zelensky.
