Details of the conversation

Fursenko Ihor: Today is my turn.

Fursenko Oleksandra: Where?

Fursenko Ihor: Where to? To Fire Point.

Fursenko Oleksandra: Congratulations, I hope you're already driving your new car, calmly passing through the checkpoint?

Fursenko Ihor: I'm saying, Dima, do you have any badges, like people have, so that I can hang up a "Firepoint" one too, meaning a leading specialist, all that stuff.

He says that we call the border guards in advance if someone from our company is traveling, and they are already aware of the situation.

Data from the Unified Register of Legal Entities, Individuals, Entrepreneurs, and Public Associations indicate that Firepoint LLC's primary activity is the manufacture of aircraft and spacecraft and related equipment.
