We hope that we will be able to achieve some concrete results and agreements so that the intensity of traffic in these directions will resume. In all directions – both for leaving Ukraine and for entering Ukraine,” said Andrey Demchenko, speaker of the State National Service of Ukraine, on Radio Liberty.
Earlier, he said that 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.
Overall, this blockade harms both Ukraine and Poland. But we see that since November 6, Polish carriers continue 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.
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.
