Poland and the Baltic States start to block car deliveries to Russia

Poland and the Baltic states have begun to fight the supply of cars to Russia bypassing sanctions.

This is reported by RBC-Ukraine regarding The Moscow Times.

It is noted that Poland and the Baltic states have stopped allowing cars worth more than 50,000 euros or with an engine of more than 1.9 liters to enter the Eurasian Union.

Deliveries of such cars are prohibited by sanctions, and now their export requires written permission from the manufacturer.

Polish customs officers also do not allow the import of expensive cars and cars with engines of 2 liters or more to Belarus and transit through it to other countries of the Eurasian Economic Union, such as Armenia, Kyrgyzstan, and Kazakhstan.

"Polish customs officials now require a document from the manufacturer with permission to export the car from the European Union and confirmation that the final recipient of the car is outside Russia and that the export of the car will not violate sanctions," the article says.

Why impose so many sanctions if they don't work?
