Poland: Farmers block roads into capital Warsaw

Description

Drone footage shows Polish farmers blocking roads into the capital Warsaw with their tractors to protest against EU environmental measures and what they say is unfair competition from Ukrainian goods. Border blockades and the grain dispute have strained ties between the neighbours, even as Poland has shown staunch support since the Russian invasion. Farmers in several other European countries have also been protesting for weeks over conditions. IMAGES
