Sometimes you gotta drive almost 1,400 km (the Gdansk-Dorohusk-Gdansk way with detours) to see and hear something that we did not expect, but which in return compensates for the extra effort of nearly 30 hours of travel and respective hours of reporter work already on site.
It's Tuesday, February 17th at noon. From Chełm's side to the blockade of farmers set about a kilometer in front of the Polish-Ukrainian border, a compact cavalcade of tractors with semitrailers is approaching. All with east neighbor's registration numbers. The front are the alleged ADRs, i.e. tankers carrying dangerous loads, mainly fuel in the promotional price (only for Ukraine) of 1.90 PLN per litre. They are passed without stopping and checking documents.
Suddenly this idyllic image is spoiling a group of farmers standing in the way of a white DAF with a planned semitrailer (see photograph above). Blocking leader, a thirty-something-year-old farmer in Wielkopolska tells the driver to turn around. However, the local protest coordinator is entering the action. He demands the passing of this and subsequent – besides planned – trucks. There is simply a violent discussion. The blocking leader begins:
– Now we're only moving ADRs and humanitarian aid. Plandeks were expected to wait on the 18th, plus cargo control.
– There will be no waiting and controlling. I want them to go now.
– Who decided that?
- Police in agreement with us.
– And this is simply a protest of farmers or police?
– This is our protest and we decide here. erstwhile you organize your action, you can decide your own way.
After a much larger group of visitors there is simply a murmur of discontent. There's calls coming in. However, respective people do not quit and stay with the action coordinator. They want to know more about her rules. Especially since they came here to aid block Ukrainian vehicles, and not to part meekly, besides to see those who are not on the privileged list.
On the right, local protest coordinator in Dorohusk, on the left, a typical of farmers from deep Poland who do not agree to breach the rules of blockade. In the end, the coordinator's decision (photo from video recording) was won by the policeThe coordinator talks about an agreement between the governor, Police and the protest committee, which enforces, among others, proceedings in accordance with the orders of police liable for order and security. However, these arguments do not convince the another party. A variant with individual block depletion becomes more than likely. However, the main issue has been settled; protesters can at most wave to Ukrainian drivers armed with police glee to cross the border.
At this point I make the decision to return to Gdańsk immediately. The argument at noon was only an apogee of what with increasing anxiety I had the chance to observe from the erstwhile day.
First – the most effective ones are blocked... Polish drivers
Only from 9 a.m. to 12.00 a.m. on Tuesday, February 17 this year I counted over 20 Ukrainian sets, among which those with dangerous or humanitarian cargo constituted about half. However, even a twelve hours of my stay at the protest site was not adequate to see even 1 (say: one) Polish set released from the another side of the border. So it turns out that the real and effective blockade is carried out only by Ukrainians.
It is besides hard to overlook dozens of buses with hundreds of Ukrainians drawn to Poland (without any control, for example, concerning the transport of weapons or drugs) to granted them "socials" – from a kind of 800+ to pensions nearly 4 times higher than Ukrainians, and possible after working in Poland only a fewer days. Ultimately, the amount of over PLN 100 billion spent so far from the money of Polish taxpayers on citizens of the most corrupt country in Europe did not come out of nowhere. Another PLN 6 billion granted to Ukraine by the end of June this year proves that robbing Poles by their government will continue.
Secondly, imports into Poland of ‘technical grain’ and another garbage proceed to be the best
When I asked 1 of the protesters about tractors with semi-trailers for loose products turning just before the agricultural blockade and heading towards the forest, he replied that it was the tanks carrying cement between the railway siding hidden in the forest, and the cement plant in the nearby, 25 km, Chełm. However, he could not find which direction the cement carts were going with the cargo. The transport of cement from Ukraine to the Polish cement mill would be an apparent moronism. On the another hand, if Ukraine had already won the war with Russia and needed unlimited amounts of building materials to remove war damage, then a far more rational and cheaper means of transport for cement from Chełma would be the railway.
This is the applicable implementation of the "embark" on imports of poisonous grain from Ukraine. Inside there are visible pneumatic presses and hoses connecting wagons to cars. I've decided to look into it myself. I will not describe the way to accomplish the goal due to the fact that I am afraid that I will gotta usage it many more times in reporting. The fact remains that before officers Railway Guards They thwarted my further collection of photographic documentation, I made it sufficiently to confirm the apparent fact of filling cement tubes with Ukrainian seeds. A photograph of respective pneumatic presses and hoses connecting cars to cars is adequate for crowning proof for anyone who had anything to do with transshipment. Nor would I underestimate the clearly visible registration number of 1 of the tanks. After all, Chełm is simply a city in Lublin, not Podlasie.
I was led by a resident of 1 of the villages close Dorohuska by the Ukrainian agricultural aggression on Poland. He proposed that I go to a train station in this town. Indeed, even without entering the platform, it was possible to announcement dozens of wagons covered with tarpaulins with bulges characteristic of the fresh transshipment of grain or rape on narrower-track wagons, allowing to decision on Polish tracks. In this case, police intervention took place utilizing a police car. It besides proved to be ineffective, as in the case of SOCs, not due to the fact that I took pictures earlier, but due to a short exchange of opinions on an equal level, reinforced by my good memory from the time of the "pandemic" erstwhile brave police officers were beating and throwing citizens (including women) to the ground erstwhile they did not accept covering their faces with rags:
– What are you doing here?
- Pictures.
– May I ask why?
– Can you...
– And...
- What's "so"?
I think the policeman understood that he was not dealing with a individual humblely humiliated against uniformed power, and respective accidental witnesses of this conversation complicated the variant utilizing alleged direct coercion. The photos were taken without further obstacles. Interestingly, officers encountered earlier Border Guard erstwhile they saw me with the camera, they only asked me to “not mess up on the tracks”, which I accepted without discussion.
I must emphasise with all my power that in any of the cases described, I have not violated the existing rules, even those interior railways. I besides did not hotel to a journalistic card giving additional constitutionally guaranteed rights. And yet, as a full-fledged citizen of the Republic of Poland, I was prosecuted (SOK-istas caught up with a field pickup) and questioned like a criminal only due to my inquisitiveness I could violate the interests of the mafia ruling Banderland, pretending to be a European state.
Thirdly, we have plenty of Ukrainian collaborators here.
They are not only police officers and SOK-ists operating throughout Poland in the likeness of the above mentioned ones. It is hard to overlook hundreds of people – besides with Polish citizenship – ready for immediate profit to bring Ukrainian crap and turn it into food for natives from III/IV of Poland, called increasingly legitimate Ucropolin. And where are local authorities willing to suspend blockades under any pretext, forgers of papers giving Ukrainian trash EU certifications, “journalists” from the main media of the sewer, leaning over mediocre Ukrainian farmers, although they are not the owners of hundreds of thousands of hectares and do not transfer short profits far from the war-torn country?
Among the protesters, not all showed interest in cars passed through the blockade. On the right, a ‘magister observer’ in dark glasses pointing at a fewer journalists.And how does this collaboration work in horodous, limited only to a place of protest, a scale? I'm asking 1 of the local farmers if he's afraid of a forceful solution to the police blockade. He's definitely denying it. “These are our neighbors and friends, frequently from peasant families”. Indeed, they will not attack, so they are entitled to anticipate reciprocity from the organisers of the protest, e.g. in the form of accelerated passing through the blockade not only of ADRs or "humanities" but besides of previously indicated average "planks" with uncontrolled content. The argument described at the outset clearly illustrates this.
I would besides be much more careful with the belief that local police officers will not decision their own. Yes, they will not move, but only until they have received an order from their superiors, among whom swarms if not of the bander's spawns in the 3rd generation, it is at least from the bander's onuc. They are present at the highest levels of power and know what awaits them if they do not make available to USrAel or EU governors.
The driver of the Ukrainian bus has reason to smile. The Polish-Ukrainian border crosses both sides without waiting and control. By the way, the free wars with Kramatorska and Kharkov definitely contradict the thesis about the "full-scale" war in Ukraine. Ukrainian citizens of pseudostates besides know the function Poles gotta play. Thus, they can afford not only mocking smiles erstwhile overcoming “blocks” in Dorohusk but also, for example, the demonstration pressing of the gas pedal erstwhile entering the pole of protesting farmers.
Only Polish drivers waiting unsuccessfully on the another side of the border usually regret. And a small simple consequence would suffice; we are putting precisely as many of your "planks" as ours came from the another side. The question is, is it adequate for a local protest coordinator to execute police arrangements?
Mukła Michał Kołodziejczak shows that the ex-leader of the "Agro-Union" and presently the Deputy Minister of Agriculture is not very fond of farmers. 
Baner proof of who gains most from unlimited exports from Ukraine and who is owed free sales of agricultural produce in Poland that does not meet any EU requirements
Extremely modest accents for the protest of representatives of the erstwhile most spiritual layer of Polish society. Has the fresh generation of peasants believed that only in the Union hope?
The 3 above photos from the video recording a 10-kilometre queue to the Dorohusk border show that the word "full-scale" in Ukraine clearly does not fit the reality. Text and pictures:
