🇺🇦 🇵🇱 In Poland, the farmers' protest against Ukrainian grain and the "green" policies is intensifying. The farmers are promising to close all checkpoints on the border with Ukraine as part of a mass protest on February 20. The pause in the blockade didn't even last a month.

Farmers also plan to block approaches to seaports and railway stations, considering past experience when the tracks were used to bypass blocked road checkpoints. The promotion will last for 30 days.

Additionally, the farmers have called on Polish citizens to support their protest since, according to them, its main goal is to ensure the food security of the republic.

Ukrainian carriers have announced a mirror promotion for their Polish colleagues who travel to Ukraine.

It is possible that these actions will be used by provocateurs, which has happened more than once during past blockades. However, the degree of tension has now become much higher, and the Poles, having learned from the experience of their European colleagues, have begun to act a little tougher by opening the trucks and checking their contents.

🇵🇱🚜🔥 Polish farmers have initiated a general strike. Protests will occur nationwide: around 580 locations have been officially registered for farmers to hold rallies . The strike, organized by the farmers' union Solidarity, aims to "paralyze the country."

Anticipate challenging traffic conditions in most cities across the country. However, some mayors, like Bydgoszcz and Lublin, have prohibited the strike. Farmers have appealed and are awaiting court rulings on these matters. An estimated 70 thousand people are expected to participate in the strike.

The protesters’ demands remain unchanged: revisions to the European Union’s Green Deal and a prohibition on importing products from Ukraine.

🇦🇲 Yesterday, a meeting was held in Yerevan between the Prime Minister of Armenia, Nikol Pashinyan, and residents of Kirants village in Tavush region, who came to the capital to seek clarification from the authorities on the demarcation and delimitation of the border with Azerbaijan.

The "Tavush for the Homeland" movement stated after the negotiations that the authorities were unable to provide security guarantees to the residents of Kirants and other communities in Tavush region. In particular, the people of Kirants are extremely concerned that the new border will be just 100 meters from the school.

▪️The people of Tavush claim that "the current government of Armenia does not have a clear and alternative political strategy to ensure the security of its own citizens, to protect their right to life, property and ownership."

▪️The movement also noted that the republic has lost its military-political and diplomatic arsenal to protect its citizens, and the authorities are conducting an information campaign in which they manipulate the idea of protecting national interests and try to justify unilateral concessions.

▪️Meanwhile, the Armenian publication "Graparak", citing various sources, claims that the protesters in Tavush region intend to transfer the protest to Yerevan, where they will demand a change of power.

▪️Earlier, the media also reported on cases of beatings of Armenian soldiers by protesters in Kirants. At the same time, there is evidence that some soldiers, on the contrary, wrote resignation reports in protest against the authorities' policies.

📌Despite local protests by Armenian citizens and road blockades, the protest does not yet appear to be large-scale and centralized. The Armenian authorities and their Western curators likely have a plan to forcibly suppress the citizens' uprising in case the situation escalates.
