The investigation into trade with Russia was filmed: from Poland deported Ukrainian journalists

According to Yuri Konkevich, local police detained them with a colleague and removed the equipment. They were also called people who threaten Poland's national security. Two Ukrainian journalists were deported from Poland who tried to investigate the theme of freight transportation on the Polish-Russian border. This is stated in the publication of the National Union of Journalists of Ukraine (NSU) of March 13. It is about journalists of the information agency "District. in.

ua" Yuri Konkevich and Alexander Pilyuk. They selected equipment and deported from the country. "The Polish police detained us and seized the property, did not inform the consul, did not allow us to call Ukraine, and the internal security agency called people who threaten the national security of Poland, and spoke," - said journalist Yuri Konkevich. The editorial board of "District. in. ua" appealed to the state authorities of Ukraine and Poland.

They were asked to respond properly to the incident that occurred at the border. It is noteworthy that this is not the first such case. "We turn to international journalistic organizations for support, because such a reaction of Polish law enforcement officers threatens freedom of speech not only against Ukrainian journalists. We also demand to return property that is valuable and is of material value," - says Director IA "District. in. ua" Igor Denisevich.

It is noteworthy that earlier the Polish security forces detained other investigators of the Ukrainian Pravda - Mikhail Tkach and Yaroslav Bondarenko. They also tried to cover the topic of trade between Poland and Belarus with Russia. The National Union of Journalists expressed its solidarity with colleagues and urges to protect their rights. Recall that the past incident happened on February 27. Then in Poland they detained a Ukrainian journalist who shot on the border.
