Now there is only one direction left where cars move more or less intensively – this is the exit from Ukraine to Poland at the Krakovets checkpoint. As of the morning of November 12, there were 2,500 trucks at the border waiting to cross the border. Press Secretary of the State Border Service of Ukraine Andrey Demchenko stated this during the telethon.
Overall, this blockade harms both Ukraine and Poland. But we see that since the 6th, Polish carriers have continued such actions,” he noted.
These cars cannot cross the border on time because Polish carriers are in the way, blocking the access roads. Most of these cars waiting in line on Polish territory in the direction of Ukraine are in the direction of the Yagodin checkpoint.
Let us remind you that on November 6, Polish carriers began a protest on the Polish-Ukrainian border – they completely blocked the passage of freight vehicles to the Yagodin-Dorogusk and Rava-Russkaya-Grebnoye emergency situations.
Because of this blockade, the flow of trucks across the border has decreased by 2-3 times. Already on November 9, it became known that due to a strike of Polish carriers on the border of Ukraine and Poland, more than 20 thousand cars on both sides were blocked.
On November 13, the Ministry of Development of Communities, Territories and Infrastructure of Ukraine will hold a meeting at the border with representatives of the Polish authorities and carriers to unblock checkpoints, the ministry reported.
