Polish farmers open Ukrainian freight wagons with grain at the Medyka border crossing, blocking the tracks on the strategically important railway line. The action is part of nationwide farmers' protests.
They are directed against EU agricultural policy, but also against the import of cheap agricultural products from Ukraine. The Foreign Ministry in Kiev called on Warsaw to stop the blockades and take action against "anti-Ukrainian" rhetoric. Polish farmers also complain that the EU's Green Deal imposes new conditions on them, while grain from Ukraine is allowed onto the market.
