Angry Polish farmers attack Ukraine’s grain shipment

Aleksandr Kobrakov, Minister of Regional Development and Infrastructure of Ukraine, said that 160 tons of Ukrainian grain, which was on its way to other countries, was destroyed by angry farmers in Poland.

According to the report of RIA Novosti, Kubakov wrote on X social network: The grains were on their way to the port of Gdańsk and then to other countries. This is the fourth time Ukrainian cargo has been attacked at Polish railway stations with impunity. How long will the Polish government and police allow this vandalism?

On the other hand, Radio Poland explained that this incident happened last night near Bydgoszcz. The load of corn in the train trailers was scattered on the ground and the local police investigated this case.

On February 20, protesting farmers in Poland, protesting the supply of agricultural products from Ukraine, unloaded two wagons of Ukrainian corn that they loaded on the railway lines at the Polish-Ukrainian border crossing in Medica. Informed sources also reported that farmers unloaded grain from Ukrainian trucks in Dorohosk.

This week, Poland witnessed the biggest farmers’ protests. Protesting farmers completely blocked checkpoints on the border with Ukraine, transport centers and access roads to railway stations and seaports. At some border crossings, they unloaded grain from trucks and carts and dumped it on the ground.

European farmers are opposed to the EU’s policy of granting facilities for the export of Ukrainian agricultural products at lower prices compared to European products, which has reduced the ability of European farmers to compete and reduce their profits.
