Fortunately, there is no traffic restriction for trucks in this direction, both to and from Ukraine and Poland to Ukraine. Trucks are moving normally in accordance with the capacity of this direction

 - said Demchenko. 

According to him, other checkpoints on the border with Poland are also functioning stably.

“We hope that Polish farmers will not resume their actions to block truck traffic, because it causes losses for both Ukraine and Poland. This situation is fully under the control of our diplomatic missions in Poland, both embassies and consulates, to be in constant communication with government agencies in Poland. It was announced that Polish farmers could start this on the 8th, but as of now, we see that they are not doing this,” added Demchenko.
