Truckers stuck in border jams threaten to block Warsaw
0 Comments | AFP, January, 2008
WARSAW (AFP) — Polish truckers, fed up with massive queues at border crossings due to a protest by customs staff, threatened Saturday to block Warsaw and other cities in the country.
"If the government and the customs agents do not quickly agree we are ready to block Warsaw, Monday at noon (1100 GMT). Blockades in other cities could follow," the president of the Polish Association for Road Transport Employers, Boleslaw Milewski, told AFP.
A large number of border agents have been missing from their posts for several days, taking holiday or sick-leave in a dispute over pay, and causing major queues at border crossings.
So far two drivers have died stuck in queues, one of an apparent heart attack and the other when a fire broke out in his truck cabin.
