(ANSA) - ROMA, 07 NOV - Polish truckers stand on a roadside as they take part in a protest blocking the Polish-Ukrainian border in Korczowa village, south-eastern Poland, 07 November 2023. The protest comes amid an economic slowdown in Europe and a relaxation of regulations for Ukrainian transport companies in 2022 by the European Union. Several dozen owners of transport companies blocked three major Polish border crossings with Ukraine to protest what they say is unfair competition from the neighboring country's businesses. Apart from reinstating the EU entry permits, the truckers' second biggest concern was dealing with procedures upon returning back to Poland from Ukraine. 'The Ukrainian side has created an electronic queue system, where a carrier wanting to enter Poland must register. The waiting time is around 11 or 12 days,' co-organiser of the protest, Rafal Mekler said. (ANSA).
