KYIV, Nov 16 – The number of freight transport leaving Ukraine since the beginning of the blockade by Polish haulers of three border crossing points on the Ukrainian-Polish border on November 6 has decreased by 20-25%, Deputy Minister for Communities, Territories and Infrastructure Development Yuriy Vaskov said at the Annual General Membership Meeting of the European Business Association (EBA).

"In numbers, I will say that since these protests, the total number of freight transport that leaves has fallen by about 20-25%. And now, there is such a critical situation at Rava Ruska and Yahodyn, at other border crossing points, including Krakovets. There, with the help of local authorities, not central, but local, it works," Vaskov said.
