      Slovakia and Hungary also joined the blockade. And it's not only about Ukrainian goods (grain mainly) but also about Ukrainian transport. EU allowed them to operate without permits (even those that EU transport companies must have) so Ukrainian haulers were able to drastically push others from local transport in this year (mainly Polish ones, % decreased from 38% to 9% according to Polish data).

      And the transport is constant axis of economic-administrative conflict there, shortly before the war even China got involved when UA tried to blackmail Poland into getting them more transport permits by blocking the Chinese imports to Poland which were going through UA by trains.
