Polish hauliers have initiated a round-the-clock blockade of the Medyka-Shehyni checkpoint on the Ukrainian border, with the threat to block all checkpoints. This has led to border confrontations with Ukraine, and Slovakia has also joined the protests by issuing an ultimatum to block the Ukraine border crossing. Germany has blocked its border with Poland due to the blockade. The EU Transport Commissioner has called the blockade 'unacceptable'. The crisis has led to massive queues on both sides of the border, with Ukrainian drivers staging counterprotests at the Polish border. The EU Council and transport ministers are set to discuss the protests at the Poland-Ukraine border. The Polish government has reached an agreement with carriers on the blockade and has proposed a solution to Ukraine. The crisis has also led to a ban on the import of agricultural products from Ukraine by Slovakia. Despite this, Ukraine and Poland have agreed on conditions for unblocking the border for truck traffic, with the opening of a crossing for empty trucks at the Ukraine-Poland border scheduled on December 4.
