The Ministry of Agrarian Policy explained what Polish farmers demand who are blocking the border with Ukraine.
Polish farmers are blocking the border with Ukraine, but not against goods
According to the Ministry of Agrarian Policy and Food of Ukraine, Polish farmers who blocked the border with Ukraine have no claims against Ukrainian goods. They took this step to use protests as a way to influence the political power in Poland.
The Ministry is actively working on resolving this problem. Minister of Agrarian Policy Vitaliy Koval has already held two meetings with his Polish counterpart and has appealed to the European Commission on this issue.
At the Ministry of Agrarian Policy, it was explained that Polish farmers do not demand anything from Ukrainian goods, they are simply using the border blockade as a means of influence on their power.
We remind you that Polish farmers began blocking the 'Medika - Shehyn' checkpoint. The protest will last until December 31, 2024.
We also remind you that at the beginning of November, the operation of the checkpoints on the border with Moldova was suspended.
Earlier, due to software issues, a large queue of cars occurred at one of the checkpoints on the border with Slovakia.
