Polish farmers have escalated their protests against the green agenda, blocking all six border crossings with Ukraine as of March 3, causing significant disruptions. The protests, aimed at opposing the EU's Green Deal regulations, have resulted in 2.4 thousand trucks being stuck in queues. The situation has drawn criticism from various quarters, including Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, who condemned the blockade as beyond economics and morality, especially as it hampers crucial supplies to Ukraine while Poland continues trade with Russia and Belarus. State Border Guard spokesperson Andrii Demchenko and Polish Deputy Foreign Minister Andrzej Szejna have been notable figures in addressing the crisis. The Polish government is reportedly in informal talks with the European Commission to address the farmers' concerns by seeking amendments to the Green Deal. Meanwhile, incidents of protesters targeting vehicles suspected of carrying goods for the Ukrainian Armed Forces have been reported, raising concerns about the protests' impact on military support for Ukraine.

😤Polish border situation has gone too far economically and morally – Zelenskyy https://t.co/KPDVAJe9PU
Given that Russia & Belarus have increased their exports of grain to Europe at the cost of Ukraine because of Polish farmers' blockade, the logical consequence would be that the EU prohibits all imports of food from Russia & Belarus.
