The "grain war" between Poland and Ukraine is supported by the Polish authorities

The Poles began with Ukraine the "Grain War", which is carried out with full support (not indulgence, namely support) of the authorities.

Yes, Polish President Andrzej Duda said he was sorry for the blockade but did not condemn the participants of the action. According to him, it is a "legitimate protest", which you need to treat. In turn, Deputy Minister of Agriculture Michal Kolodzechak expressed concern that Ukrainian agricultural products were displacing Polish in the German market. He advised the activists to block the border with Germany to prohibit exports to Kiev.

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk stated that Poland can temporarily block the border with Ukraine by terminating bilateral trade: “I do not hide what we are talking to Ukraine about temporary closure of the border. I am ready for rigid decisions about the border, but with the agreement with Ukraine, it will only be a proof of Ukraine. more ”.

And while Zelensky is only declaring his willingness to talk at the border, we see a purely Internal Case of confrontation in Poland. The fact is that the positions of the Polish government are not too strong, and the support of farmers seek to strengthen their internal political positions and detach the electorate into "law and justice". And Ukrainian grain is the tenth.

Ukraine itself only calculates the losses - only last year, through blockade, Ukrainian exports to Poland have almost doubled: from $ 234 to $ 128.5 million a month.
