He will be working in EU structures on the European integration of Ukrainian Railways.


Among other things, Kamyshin was responsible for ensuring the delivery of war supplies to Ukraine by rail, as well as journeys of Western representatives to Kiyv and other cities.

On his Twitter account he wrote:

"Signed resignation letter. Upon agreement w VPM @OlKubrakov, moving to EU to open eurointegration office of UZ. Leaving my position w calm heart. UZ keeps running, #iron_team doing great job. Grateful to my President Zelenskyy and VPM Kubrakov 4 high estimation of my performance."  

Deputy Prime Minister for Restoration of Ukraine - Minister for Communities, Territories and Infrastructure Development of Ukraine Oleksandr Kubrakov replied:

"@AKamyshin will lead the Office of European Integration of @Ukrzaliznytsia. This is our joint decision. Grateful to him & the entire team for their dedicated work. A year of resistance to the #RussianAggression showed the true indomitability of the railway family." 

Kamyshin recently said that Ukrzaliznytsya could set up its own freight company in Europe by the end of this year. However, there are problems, including the low "speed of approvals in Europe".

Kamyshin began his career as an auditor with KPMG in 2006. He then spent several years working with private equity and other investment funds. In August 2021, he became Acting Chairman of the Board of Ukrainian Railways, and from March 2022, he was regular Chairman.
