The Foreign Ministry admitted that checkpoints are not places for protests.

Checkpoints on the Polish-Ukrainian border are critical infrastructure and should not be blocked by protesters.

About this in During a joint press conference on Tuesday in Warsaw with Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiha, Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski said, Ukrinform writes.

He noted that the Polish Interior Ministry is responsible for border issues, agreeing that checkpoints and access roads to them “are critical infrastructure and should not be places of protest.”

“We must take a close look at the scale of protests that our courts are issuing permits for,” Sikorski added.

Recall that on November 24, several dozen Polish farmers began a protest, blocking the “Medika- Shehyni”.

The protests of Polish farmers on the border with Ukraine lasted from November last year until April this year. The main demand of the protesters was to limit the import of agricultural products from Ukraine and in particular – to reduce the import of grain, despite the fact that such crops pass through the territory of this country in transit.
