The Armed Forces threaten fuel supply through Polish border blockade - Bild

According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, the blockade threatens the automotive industry of Germany. Entire supply chains, such as electrical cables, suffer. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine is afraid that the Armed Forces are threatening the supply of fuel through the Polish blockade of the border. The Bild was told in the Foreign Ministry. Also, according to the state institution, the blockade threatens the automotive industry of Germany.

Entire supply chains, such as electrical cables, suffer. "Through blockade, it is difficult for the automotive industry companies to supply client components in Germany and other EU countries in a timely manner," the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine said. We will remind, on November 25 Deputy Minister of Agrarian Policy Markian Dmitrasevich reported that because of the strike of Polish carriers the border with Poland crosses a very small number of trucks.

This creates problems with fuel supply. According to him, on average at the border with Poland the crossing points crosses one truck per hour. "Through the Polish borders, the crossing of our trucks is blocked. On average, there is one truck for an hour every day . . . We already see problems with such an important supply as fuel to Ukraine. This also needs to be taken into account," the official said.

On October 30, the Ukravtopromy Association reported that from November Polish carriers plan to start a strike on the Ukrainian border. Then the carriers threatened to block all checkpoints with the Ukrainian side due to excessive competition after the liberalization of international transportation between Ukraine and the EU. According to the International Transport Association of Ukraine, the term of the respective action is two months.

On November 14, the SPSU spokesman Andriy Demchenko announced that Ukraine's negotiations with Poland on border unlocking had not yet been given results. "Negotiations with Poland have not yet led to anything. Polish carriers continue to block three main directions," Demchenko said. In addition, on November 23 it became known that the movement at another checkpoint in Poland was stopped. The protesters blocked the movement of trucks at the checkpoint "Medica - Shehyni".
