The situation regarding Poland's border crossing points is reported by Glavpost, referencing rp.pl.
According to a statement by the chairman of the Council for Cooperation with Ukraine and the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Polish Sejm, Pawel Kowal, the government has approved a new regulation that specifies that border control points are now considered critical infrastructure. Kowal noted that the expansion of the list of critical infrastructure aims to minimize the impact of protests that could affect border operations.
“The list of what is considered critical infrastructure has been expanded. This decision will help reduce the inconveniences associated with protests at the border,” he emphasized.
It is important to note that Polish farmers and other activists may continue to use various methods of pressure on the authorities, but now, in light of the new regulation, their actions will be more restricted.
Additionally, it is worth reminding how Zelensky reacted to the pause in aid from the U.S. and what the risks are for Ukraine.
These steps by the Polish government could impact Ukraine's foreign economic relations and its transit capabilities, as any disruptions at border points might lead to delays in transportation, adversely affecting the supply of goods and services.
