Polish carriers are set to continue their blockade at checkpoints on the border, as reported by AFP, following unsuccessful negotiations with Ukraine.
Rafal Mekler, the leader of the protesters in Dorohusk, stated, "The Ukrainian side is not addressing our demands." The blockade participants are advocating for the reinstatement of the permit system for Ukrainian carriers, citing the impact of increased competition on their incomes.
However, Ukraine remains firm in its stance, emphasizing that the cargo liberalization agreement was ratified and agreed upon by all EU members. This agreement was signed between the European Union and Ukraine, not specific individual countries. Therefore, Ukraine stands firm on its decision not to entertain discussions regarding a return to the permit system.
