Polish farmers declare general strike
Currently, Polish farmers are announcing a general strike and are announcing a series of protests across the country, which will begin on Friday, February 9 and will last for a month. The final is scheduled for March 10.
According to the Agricultural Solidarity, the Polish government should present a specific plan for agricultural production and a project to rebuild Polish processing and trade.
Minister of Agriculture Czesław Siekierski explains that he is still talking to farmers and their organizations. “We take very seriously talks with farmers, but we need time, we ask for this, because this government has only been functioning for six or seven weeks,” Michał Dobrołowicz, told RMF FM reporter.
