The 27-year-old skeleton racer wore it during his regular training session, where he clocked the second-best time (56.40). Vladyslav was second only to Britain’s Matt Weston (56.11).
The government has allowed transformer equipment manufacturers to retain 100% of their employees.

In addition, the number of criteria for recognising a company as critically important has been reduced from three to two.
