The cargo was transiting to the port of Gdansk, from where it was headed to other countries of the world, the Ministry of Infrastructure reported, calling it another act of vandalism.
«The Ukrainian side faithfully fulfills its obligations and, according to the agreements with the Polish government, does not export some types of agricultural products to the territory of Poland. This is confirmed at the official level — neither grains, nor corn, nor rapeseed — remain there. This is the fourth case of vandalism at Polish railway stations. The fourth case of impunity and irresponsibility,» commented Oleksandr Kubrakov, Minister of Community Development, Territories and Infrastructure.
