Farmers' protest continues

Around 50 farmers have put up tents in front of the Prime Minister's Office to demand subsidies for milk and pork production and compensations for damages caused by wild boars. The farmers, who gathered in the so-called "green town," will stay there until at least March 10, according to Jerzy Chróścikowski, the leader of the NSZZ Solidarity of Individual Farmers union. Chróścikowski also announced a nationwide farmers' strike. Meanwhile, Sławomir Izdebski, head of the agricultural wing of the National Alliance of Trade Unions (OPZZ), said that the farmers' protest will "shake Poland." He is to reveal the details of the upcoming actions tomorrow.
