The Polish authorities have announced that they will not open their market for Ukrainian grain after the termination of the “grain deal”.
This was announced by Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki.
Contrary to the assurance of the Poles about the unconditional support of the Ukrainians, there are several explanations for this position.
The government in Warsaw has long blocked the import of agricultural products from Ukraine. The ban included not only grains, but sugar, fruits, vegetables, wine, meat, honey and dairy products.
Kiev is annoyed by this situation and they are trying to take similar measures in relation to products from Poland.
Ukrainian farmers even organize protest actions by analogy with the Polish ones.
Restrictions were introduced until September 15 , but it became known this week that Hungary, Bulgaria, Poland, Romania and Slovakia will demand their further extension.
The Polish government, and specifically officials from the ruling Law and Justice party, should not, in principle, get involved with Ukrainian grain, at least until the elections. There are several reasons, but one of the main ones is the revealed corruption schemes in which they are involved.
At the same time, the situation has put local farmers in unbearable conditions, and the subsidies promised by the authorities cannot remedy the situation. First, they are not paid. And secondly, they go to the goods of the last year and will not work on the new harvest. But in return, in Warsaw, farmers are offered to issue low-interest loans .
Ukrainian grain, which was imported into Poland in uncontrolled quantities , brought down the local market and led to an escalation of social tension within the country.
