“We received information from representatives of the Polish Border Guard,” the statement said.
“The protesters ended their action at 10:30 p.m. Kyiv time. At this time, truck processing in both directions—toward Ukraine and toward Poland at the Yahodyn-Dorohusk crossing—has resumed as usual.”
Hours earlier, the Lublin Court of Appeals upheld Dorohusk mayor’s May 8 decision banning the protest and prohibiting transport companies from blockading the Yahodyn-Dorohusk crossing.
Also on May 13, the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry appealed to Polish authorities to resume normal cargo traffic across the border, given that it serves as a critical economic and humanitarian lifeline for Ukraine as it defends against Russian armed aggression.
On May 12, Polish truckers launched a protest at the Dorohusk crossing, preventing freight cargo going in either direction.
