Ukraine's Ministry of Communities, Territories and Infrastructure Development has fulfilled all obligations taken to meet the demands of the protesters who blocked the Ukrainian-Polish border, the ministry reported on Tuesday after a conversation between Deputy Prime Minister for Reconstruction, Minister of Communities, Territories and Infrastructure Development Oleksandr Kubrakov and Minister of Infrastructure of Poland Dariusz Klimczak.

"At the end of December, we agreed with our Polish colleagues on a list of measures to unblock the border. For our part, we have fulfilled virtually everything that we promised," the press service quoted the minister of communities of territories and infrastructure development of Ukraine.

At the same time, as part of the implementation of the agreements, registration in the e-queue at the Nyzhankovychi-Malchowice BCP will be canceled from January 16. The pilot project will last one month, after which its effectiveness will be assessed.

"The position of the Ministry of Communities, Territories and Infrastructure Development was to implement this measure only after the border was unblocked. Registration is suspended today. Inspectors of the State Service of Ukraine for Transport Safety are also sent there to ensure order on the road," the ministry said.

According to a post on Facebook, the agreements with the protesters also envisage the creation of a separate pass in the online queue for empty trucks at the Yahodyn-Dorohusk BCP. "Technically, this opportunity is available as soon as stable traffic at the BCP is restored," the ministry said.

Another condition is the opening of the Uhryniv-Dołhobyczów BCP for empty trucks, which has already been fulfilled.

At the same time, the ministries agreed to launch a joint working group to analyze the situation in the bilateral transport market and ensure effective customs and border control. Its first meeting took place on January 8. It discussed a joint action plan at the ministerial level to balance the bilateral transport market and reduce queues at the borders.

In addition, as part of meeting the conditions of the protesters, the Polish Ministry of Infrastructure pledged to help find sources for paying compensation to truckers who lost eastern markets due to the full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation in Ukraine, strengthen checks to prevent cabotage road haulage, and create a system of control over the transport services of Ukrainian companies.

Kubrakov expressed gratitude for the efforts in solving the problem to the Polish infrastructure minister and his team, his team, which worked for more than two months to find solutions both with Polish colleagues and with the European Commission, as well as Ukrainian drivers and truckers.
