The Polish government has made a decision that will allow blocking the border with Ukraine – Rzeczpospolita

The Polish government has added border checkpoints to the list of critical infrastructure in order to limit the possibility of future attempts to block the Polish-Ukrainian border.

This was announced by Pavel Kowal, head of the Council for Cooperation with Ukraine and the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the Polish Sejm, as reported by Rzeczpospolita.

“The government introduced regulations concerning critical infrastructure, which slightly reduced the inconveniences caused by protests at the border,” Kowal noted.

He emphasized that the list of what is considered critical infrastructure has now been expanded.

Kowal pointed out that farmers in Poland and across the EU will always seek ways to organize protests that have the most significant impact on the authorities. On the other hand, any government will attempt to limit such protests within the bounds of the law.
