RB Rail, the implementers of the rail project, have addressed the controversy involving a million-euro discrepancy in bids from various contenders, emphasizing that the initial prices were only indicative. The company clarified that the lowest bid from a German competitor was disqualified due to a failure in meeting the required bank guarantee, a decision perceived to be objective rather than arbitrary. To ensure the legitimacy of their actions, RB Rail conducted an independent assessment, asserting their adherence to legal protocols throughout the procurement process.
