Important border crossing between Poland and Germany blocked by Polish farmers. Protest against European regulations and imports of non-EU products that they consider do not comply with European standards.
Farmer protests have been taking place for several weeks in Poland, with farmers blocking roads across the country and border crossings with Ukraine. Poland has been among Ukraine's biggest supporters since the launch of the Russian offensive in February 2022, but their relations have been poisoned in recent months by commercial disputes. On Friday, the Polish government told AFP that Warsaw and kyiv were "far from an agreement" on the import of Ukrainian agricultural products.
