Activities of this kind cast shadow over Poland, which was the first country to help the invaded Ukraine, and over Poles, who welcomed Ukrainian refugees. Importantly, they are a disgrace to the protests’ organisers themselves. In our opinion, it is an attempt to take over the farmers’ protest movement made by extreme and irresponsible circles, probably influenced by Russia’s secret collaborators. We call on the protests' organisers to identify and eliminate the few initiators of such and similar actions from their movement for the sake of Poland’s raison d’état and the chance to meet their demands, which are in large part right. The current situation of Polish farmers results from Vladimir Putin’s aggression against Ukraine and instability of global economy, not from Ukrainians fending off the aggression.
