About 100 lorries pass through unblocked Ukraine-Poland crossing, Kyiv says December 11, 2023 at 11:18PM

Since Polish truck drivers lifted the blockade on Ukraine's border with Poland, around 100 lorries have passed through the road crossing. Ukrainian deputy infrastructure minister, Serhiy Derkach, stated that Kyiv hopes for the lifting of blockades at three other border checkpoints. The protests over Ukrainian trucking firms' access to the European Union have caused thousands of trucks to be backed up at Polish border crossings with Ukraine. The Polish and Slovak truckers accuse their Ukrainian counterparts of undercutting prices and offering unauthorized services.
