This company won the tender from the Ministry and had to select the members of the Lithuanian Railways Board. The same company served the presidential candidate and Prime Minister Saulius Skvernelis during the 2019 elections: the company employed its electoral team.
This business was managed by the famous photographer Marius Jovaiša for many years through an Estonian company, but now the owners of the company have changed and their control has been taken over by a Russian citizen Sergei Salikov.

The Lithuanian company Pharmanet, which won the tender from the Ministry of Transport and Communications, recently changed its name and is now called Ancor Baltic.
Ancor, as advertised, operates in Russia, Kazakhstan, Thailand, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, and Belarus. And now, after taking over M. Jovaiša’s business, he is developing his activities in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. It is announced that the company has a network of 40 offices in various cities in these countries.

Prime Minister Saulius Skvernelis said at the time that special services had to report potential threats to the ministry in time.
“If there is any knowledge about threats to our national security, then our special services must inform the contracting authority in a timely manner about the supplier’s unreliability, risks and everything else. <...> In other words, if such information exists, I believe it is also available to the Department of State Security, it will give a response to the Ministry of Transport and Communications and no contract will be signed with this company, ”said S. Skvernelis.
The contest was canceled.
Now the transport ministry 15 minutes alleged that the tender had ended. However, the ministry did not detail whether it was canceled due to the response received from the SSD and what was written in that response.
