Farmers' protest aggravates

Protesting farmers have blocked the Warsaw-Moscow international railway route near Siedlce on Friday. The route may be blocked for a few hours, Sławomir Izdebski head of the farmers' union, said. He also added that unless their demands are met, further protest will occur next week. The farmers demand subsidies for milk and pork production and compensation for damages caused by wild boars. In the latter case, an initial agreement with the Ministry of Agriculture has been reached. For the last few days, the farmers are gathered in the so-called "green town" in front of the Prime Minister's Office.
