Ukrainian Infrastructure Minister Oleksandr Kubrakov mentioned on Tuesday that the spilling of the nation’s grain by protesting Polish farmers is a “political provocation.”
“The spilled Ukrainian grain on the railroad tracks in Poland is another political provocation aimed at dividing our nations,” Kubrakov mentioned in an announcement printed by Ukraine’s Communities, Territories and Infrastructure Development Ministry.
Underlining that Polish protesters spilled about 4 tons of grain from two grain carriages that stopped on the prepare station within the border village of Medyka, the assertion mentioned the grain entered Poland in transit to Germany.
“Such ‘actions’ are a loss for everyone,” Kubrakov mentioned, including that Ukrainian farmers have been harvesting grain below fixed hazard.
“The Ukrainian army has literally broken through a corridor for this grain across the Black Sea … Up to 90% of our exports go through the Black Sea. It is a matter of our survival. And the survival of the world, which depends on Ukrainian grain, especially in Africa and Asia,” he additional mentioned.
The assertion went on to say that Polish regulation enforcement companies, the Polish Railways and Ukraine’s Embassy in Warsaw had been knowledgeable concerning the incident.
Polish farmers intensified protests in a number of hundred cities throughout Poland to protest the EU’s agricultural coverage, the Green Deal and duty-free influx of agri-food items from Ukraine.
