Greek farmers have once again blocked the “Kulata – Promachon” border checkpoint between Bulgaria and Greece, authorities reported. Currently, trucks are not allowed to cross the border. Thus the most pessimistic forecasts Bulgarian carriers made a day ago when they lifted the counter blockade of the border, turned out to be true. According to them, no one could protect the rights of the transport and trade companies working in Greece, as according to them Greece was actually managed by farmers and by the script writers of the ongoing crisis. There is no information when the blockade of the border organized by Greek farmers would end, authorities reported.
