Polish farmers will join the #blockade of the border with #Ukraine.

🔹 #Farmers are in solidarity with the transport workers, but also put forward their own demands. They are protesting against the influx of cheap food from Ukraine.

Only service vehicles, cars, vehicles with humanitarian aid and buses will be allowed through the border village of Medyka.

🔹Slovak drivers have started blocking truck traffic on the border with Ukraine.

On Slovak territory, about 300 trucks are queuing in front of the Vishne-Nemecke border crossing point in the direction of Ukraine.

🔹 Almost three thousand trucks are blocked at the border with #Poland.

#Kiev hopes to solve the problem at the border through the European Commission and counts on the launch of European "crisis prevention mechanisms".

Ukrainian businesses have reportedly lost more than $8m after the blocking of the Polish-Ukrainian border.
