Strikes specifically targeting wood‐processing enterprises have become systematic. The enemy is attempting to destroy our export potential. Recently, one of Ukraine’s leading manufacturers in the Sumy region was the target of a nighttime attack. Earlier, drones caused significant damage to a production facility in the Chernihiv region.
Just last night, the russians struck the Polish Barlinek plant in Vinnytsia, as reported by the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Poland, Radosław Sikorski.
Barlinek has long been a trustworthy partner of SFE “Forests of Ukraine” and is one of the leaders in its segment. We stand ready to offer support tools to affected manufacturers, both Ukrainian and European.
In particular, we can consider deferring payment for products under existing contracts. This will allow affected enterprises to concentrate their resources on restoring operations.
We are exploring additional support measures. The strength of our country lies in our unity. The enemy cannot divide or defeat us.
