Poland’s Minister of Development and Technology admits the introduction of an embargo on all agricultural goods from Ukraine

Polish Minister of Development and Technology Krzysztof Hetman, who is a member of the Polish Peasant Party, has allowed the introduction of an embargo on all agricultural goods from Ukraine. He said this on Radio Zet, Rzeczpospolita reports.
“Perhaps there will be no solution, and we will have to impose an embargo on all agricultural products from Ukraine,” Krzysztof Hetman said.
At the same time, he expressed support for the protests.
“I support the farmers’ protests, they are protesting for a just cause,” said Hetman.
He also believes that the farmers are blocking the roads because they are desperate.
“As I understand it, they have taken to the roads. Farmers have the right to protest, they have the right to express it in different ways,” the politician said.
Krzysztof Hetman added that farmers are in a very difficult situation, as “the costs of agricultural production have increased enormously, and at the same time the profitability of agriculture has sharply decreased.”
