Polish services will check all Ukrainian grain transiting through the country to other countries and ports at the border. Michał Kołodziejczak, Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development of the Republic of Poland, said in an interview with PAP on Monday.

"Today, there will be clear instructions that we will check all grain at the border (with Ukraine - ed.), which is subject to sealing, is subject to export, and is only transit grain," Kołodziejczak said.


The deputy minister explained that this will be done because after this grain gets in transit to Germany and it turns out that it is of poor quality, "99% of it returns to Poland as European grain." He added that there are similar cases in ports.


"This grain does not return to Ukraine, but to Poland," Kołodziejczak emphasized.


He also said that he would ask for detailed information about the Ukrainian grain that was returned to Poland as of poor quality from Germany and ports.


Kołodziejczak said that he would also order the creation of an information platform through which Polish farmers will be able to report problems and violations by phone and online directly to the Ministry.
