Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk allowed the expansion of the ban on imports from Ukraine and named the condition.
Poland may introduce a ban on import of new Ukrainian goods if the European Union does not offer any solution to the problem for Polish farmers.
This was stated by Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk, writes The Guardian.
“We are discussing the possibility of extending the embargo to other products if the EU does not find a more effective way to protect the Polish and European markets,” said the head of the Polish government.
Note that last year Warsaw unilaterally stopped importing Ukrainian grain.
