Activists on the Polish-Belarusian border block trucks with European goods that are trying to enter the territory of Belarus, and then Russia. This was reported on Facebook by the participant of the action Natalia Panchenko.

According to her, as of 20:00, the line of trucks was about 22 kilometers long. Activists let trucks with Polish license plates pass, but do not allow trucks with Belarusian and Russian license plates to pass.

Another participant in the action, Irina Zemlyanaya, told the publication massthat the activists want to get the attention of the Polish government:

«In fact, this is one of the few corridors along which these goods go. They ship all sorts of macbooks ㅡ that is, everything that is actually under sanctions, but they are transported privately. We say to the Polish government: it’s time to be honest. If sanctions ㅡ means sanctions.”

According to Zemlyanaya, the Belarusian drivers confessed to them that they were bringing a martini from Russia, which the Russians have been unable to transport for two weeks, and decided to reload it onto Belarusian trucks.

Activists also plan to block the passage of trucks with sanctioned goods to Russia on March 13.

After a full-scale invasion of Ukraine Russia has become the most sanctioned country in the worldbypassing Iran and North Korea. More large international companies stop working in the Russian market or sell Russian assets.

Also, the West imposes sanctions against Belarus, the territory and infrastructure of which Russia uses for the war against Ukraine.
