Baltic ambassadors have expressed their dissatisfaction with Poland's blocking of Ukrainian border traffic, which is causing economic hardship for Ukraine and other carriers. They are looking for a joint solution with Poland, Ukraine and the European Commission.

The ambassadors of the Baltic states have made a demarche to Poland because Polish drivers are blocking the movement of trucks on the border with Ukraine. This was reported by ERR with reference to the comment of the spokeswoman for the Estonian Foreign Ministry Brita Kikas, UNN reports.

A meeting/demonstration of three ambassadors of the Baltic states at the Ministry of Infrastructure of Poland took place in Warsaw. ...We respect the right of truck drivers to rally. But, unfortunately, this has led to a difficult situation that creates problems for other carriers and additional difficulties for the Ukrainian economy. For our part, we are raising this issue with Poland and hope that a solution will be found in the near future in cooperation between Poland, Ukraine and the European Commission. 

- said Brita Kikas. 

Details

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Estonia has repeatedly raised the issue of the blockade of the Ukrainian border. For example, the Estonian Foreign Minister has already met with the former Polish Foreign Minister and the British Foreign Secretary.

In addition, according to Kikas, the new Polish foreign minister is scheduled to visit Tallinn in the near future, where this issue will definitely be raised and Estonia will continue to make efforts to find a solution with the new Polish government.

To recap.

EU Commissioner for Transport Adina Veljan criticized the Polish authorities for not responding to the blockade of Polish carriers on the border with Ukraine, calling it "absolutely unacceptable".
