Trade Representative of Ukraine Taras Utko announced this on her Facebook page.
According to him, negotiations with the Minister of Development and Technology of Poland Krzysztof Getman and Agriculture Czeslaw Shekierski lasted four hours.
We were able to find a common language and are working on a constructive solution on how to unblock the border and take into account the interests of farmers in Poland and Ukraine. It’s not easy, but it’s possible,” Kachka noted.
He noted that the possibility of temporarily closing the border and stopping the exchange of goods, recently voiced by Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk, was not mentioned.
As Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said quite clearly, this would be a very painful decision for our economies, Kachka emphasized. “To stop trading, even for a day, which in annual terms amounts to $11.7 billion (and according to Polish statistics, even more) is too painful. Not to mention transit, which is vital for Ukraine.
No details yet, but a constructive solution is possible, he added.
