Cargo vehicles have been forming long queues at Kapitan Andreevo border checkpoint for the fourth consecutive day. On Monday those vehicles formed a thirteen kilometer-long queue and on February 5 the TIR trucks formed a twenty kilometer-long queue at the border. The Union of International Haulers threatened that they may launch a protest near Kapitan Andreevo checkpoint. That union contends that the piling of cargo vehicles is due to bad management and the unwillingness of the customs employees and the border staff to work in a prompt and effective manner.
