Lukashenka called the Polish authorities’ decision to close the border to cargo carriers a ‘stupid act’

Lukashenka stressed that the Polish authorities want to show their importance to the “boss” (Joe Biden), who recently visited them. “It was necessary to show that they are ‘fighting’ for the Americans here and that they are ready for anything – and to shoot themselves in the head. It’s just a stupid act,” Alexander Lukashenko said on Saturday during a a visit to the Raubichi complex in the Minsk region, adding that because of this people have lost their jobs. According to Lukashenka, quoted by the agency BELTA Belarus from this decision “neither hot nor cold, we do not go”, but freight carriers in Poland and other countries are suffering.This week it became known that the Polish authorities have decided to close the last checkpoint for the transport of goods “Kukuryki – Kozlovichi” on the border between Poland and Belarus. It will only be valid for carriers registered in the European Union. Previously, Warsaw closed border crossings, which led to delays in the delivery of goods and the accumulation of queues at its border.
