The Cabinet of Ministers has allowed Ukrzaliznytsia to use a 37.6-million euro loan from France to buy rails.
The funds will be provided with the interest rate of 0.0161% for 35 years with the grace period of 14 years.
The money will be spent to buy French rails and deliver them to Ukraine.
As a result of the deal, this year Ukrzaliznytsia will receive some 20 thousand tons of rails from Saarstahl Rail SAS. (Ukrainian metal)
