Almost 50% of Polish people think their government has failed to handle ongoing widespread farmer protests, a recent survey has shown. Respondents to a survey assessing the first 100 days of the country's government also expressed
dissatisfaction at how long the new coalition is taking to fulfill promises it made during the recent election campaign.
Polish farmers have been staging regular protests across the country, maintaining continuous blockades of border crossings with Ukraine since January. Farmers oppose restrictions placed on them under the EU's Green Deal and the continued flow of duty-free Ukrainian agricultural products, which they claim threatens their livelihoods.
Despite the authorities in Warsaw making certain concessions in a bid to appease the demonstrators, agricultural workers have refused to relent, arguing that the issue of unfair competition from cheap Ukrainian produce has not been fully addressed.Polish legal and business daily Dziennik Gazeta Prawna reported the findings of a poll on Wednesday, conducted by the United Surveys research center between March 8 and March 10, surveying 1,000 Poles on the performance of Prime Minister Donald Tusk's government.
According to the newspaper,
47% of respondents described the cabinet's response to the farmers' protests as a "defeat," with 32% saying the measures adopted had been sufficient, and 21% giving no clear answer.
