Rail transport unionists in Romania warn that the partial privatization of CFR Călători through a stock market listing could lead to the company's collapse and job losses. They criticize political appointments in CFR's management and the cancellation of hundreds of trains, accusing the transport ministry of favoring private operators. The federation announces protests scheduled for the coming weeks, stressing that the current measures seriously affect public rail transport services.
