Not only border crossings will be blocked, but also transport hubs and entrances to transshipment railway stations and seaports, protest organizers said.
Ukrainian volunteers report on social networks that due to the blockade of Polish farmers at the border, military supplies for the Ukrainian Armed Forces and, in particular, artillery ammunition are being delayed.
What is happening on our border with Poland cannot be perceived as something normal or everyday. We need simple and understandable justice,” Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky said in his evening address.
He believes that the reason for the situation on the Polish border is not grain, but politics.
Near Kupyansky, not far from the border with Russia, where hostile artillery does not subside, the news from the border with Poland looks simply mocking. We need general solutions, rational solutions to get out of the situation. Our decisions are with the Poles, first of all, and with everyone in Europe who is concerned about the fate of Europe,” Zelensky said.
According to him, only 5% of Ukrainian agricultural exports pass through the Polish border. So, in fact, the situation is not in the grain, but, most likely, in politics.
