Quote: "Ukraine decisively condemns the forms of protest chosen at the Polish-Ukrainian border. The maze spilled from the train car by the protesters was being transported to Germany. Ukrainian maze is not exported to Poland. Obstructing Ukraine’s trade with other countries of the world is unacceptable and contradicts common Ukrainian-Polish goals."
Background:
On the morning of 20 February, Polish farmers intensified protest actions near the Medyka-Shehyni checkpoint. The protesters blocked the railway and spilled grain from a freight train onto the tracks.
