Polish farmers will again block all checkpoints with Ukraine: the date has been announced

Farmers from Poland have declared that they will initiate a new strike at all border checkpoints between Poland and Ukraine, as well as block roads and highways in some provinces across the country from 10:00 on February 9.

This was reported by the farmers' trade union "Solidarity".

"Our patience has run out. Brussels' position on the last day of January 2024 is unacceptable to our entire agricultural community. In addition, the passivity of the Polish government and statements about cooperation with the European Commission, as well as the commitment to comply with all decisions of the European Commission regarding the import of agricultural and food products from Ukraine, leave us no choice but to declare a general strike," the statement reads.

Farmers want the Polish government to publish a clear plan for agricultural production, profitability of production, reconstruction of Polish processing and Polish trade: "We will fight for this until the end."

The protesters declare that in this way, they are "fighting for the common good to protect Polish family farms for several generations from collapse and bankruptcy."
