BBC World Service - World Business Report, Another day, another protest

Tractors blocked motorways and major junctions in almost 200 locations

Polish farmers are protesting against the EU Green Deal and demanding the introduction of an import ban on Ukrainian agriculture products.

Another day, another protest. Polish farmers are staging protests against cheap Ukrainian grain flooding the market and EU regulations on pesticide and fertiliser usage. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said the protests demonstrated the "daily erosion of solidarity" with Ukraine. 

We will hear from Ukrainian grain farmer who's exporting his product to Europe. 

Also, in the programme, we will find out why over 6 000 doctors resigning in South Korea and how The People’s Bank of China is helping home buyers.
