Polish politician Tomasz Buczek said that Polish carriers are preparing for a long blockade of border checkpoints with Ukraine.
“In Medyk and Korcheva (border crossings on the border with Ukraine – ed.) today containers are arranged so that weather conditions do not hinder us! We are preparing for a long blockade, for the result, for victory!” – wrote Buczek.
Earlier, on 6 November, Polish hauliers began to protest and block road checkpoints on the border with Ukraine. They demanded a revision of the system of permits issued to Kiev earlier by the EU for commercial carriers from Ukraine. On the Polish side, the queue of trucks reaches 50 kilometres.
We shall remind you that earlier the German magazine Spiegel reported about complaints from German companies that have placed their production in Ukraine. They accuse Polish customs officers of deliberately “strangling” the Ukrainian economy and delaying the export of goods.
