Ukrainian carriers organize a protest in Yagodyn as a response to Polish farmers’ actions
Starting Thursday, February 15, at the Yahodyn-Dorohusk checkpoint, Ukrainian carriers plan to launch a protest in response to the actions of Polish farmers who are blocking truck traffic across the Ukrainian-Polish border.
This was reported by Suspilne.
The campaign is scheduled to start at 09:00.
According to Vitaliy Kotsenko, head of the NGO “Carriers of the Western Region” Vitaliy Kotsenko, the protesters will not allow Polish carriers crossing the Yahodyn-Dorogusk checkpoint into Ukraine.
“They will stay here with us in their cars until our Ukrainian carriers start moving on their side. After all, they let one car through per hour, and it is not a Ukrainian but a Polish driver,” Kotsenko said.
He also added that the duration of the protests by Ukrainian carriers would depend on the situation on the Polish side of the border.
It is worth noting that the passage of buses at the Yahodyn checkpoint will not be blocked.
