“Farmers awaken society” Kolodziejczak on farmer protests

Must read

Farmers are awakening society not only in Poland, but throughout the European Union. And this is a great thing that they are doing,” Deputy Minister of Agriculture Michal Kolodziejczak said on RMF FM, referring to today’s farmers’ protests.

Farmers will protest in more than 250 places across Poland on Friday. This is part of the sector’s pan-European opposition to the plans and decisions of the European Union. Farmers plan to block all border crossings with Ukraine, as well as roads and highways throughout the country.

The reason for the protest, as Monika Przeworska, director of the Institute of Agricultural Economics, says in an interview with Money.pl, is primarily two issues. Opposing the flow of food from Ukraine and the demands placed on farmers under the European Green Deal.

– Farmers take to the streets for two reasons, which make being a farmer a very difficult task. The first is the issue of trade between Ukraine and the European Union. As we all know, the EU has full competence to shape our customs policy. – Przeworska said.

Kolodziejczak on farmers’ protests

Michal Kołodziejczak spoke about the farmers’ protests today in an interview with RMF FM. The deputy agriculture minister said he recognizes those who are making the right demands, but he also sees “the political involvement of those who would like to disturb the government today.” – Some would like to demand more from those who reigned for 50 days than from those who reigned for 8 years – said the Deputy Head of the Ministry of Agriculture.

Answering a question about the approach to today’s protests, the guest of the RFA Foreign Ministry said that “farmers are awakening society not only in Poland, but throughout the European Union. And that’s the most wonderful thing they do.” – The first farmers in Poland – 3-4 years ago – said that the Green Deal and the opening of the border with Ukraine would put an end to our agriculture. I’m of the same opinion – – Kolodziejczak said.
