According to him, Russian coal goes to Poland by rail and by sea. Geryshek believes that coal from Russia "has always been, is and will be in the coming years."

“In 2018, 17 million tons of coal arrived from Russia to Poland,” he said.

Geryshek added that in 2019, the supply of Russian coal will be less, since “demand is lower, and also due to the fact that in past years there was an excess of thermal coal”.

Earlier, the head of the Independent Trade Union of Miners of Ukraine, deputy of the Verkhovna Rada, Mikhail Volynets, announced a "disaster" with coal reserves in the country.
