Truckers' Protest Halts Ukraine Border Points

Polish truckers blocked three major border crossings with Ukraine in protest against what they perceive as unfair competition from Ukrainian businesses. They blame the liberalization of EU rules for a decline in their revenues and demand the reinstatement of entry permits for Ukrainian rivals. The truckers argue that Ukrainian competitors have lower costs, drive down prices, and take away their cargo. The protest has caused significant disruptions to cargo traffic, but the Polish government says it cannot meet the demands due to existing EU agreements.
