On Sunday, February 25, at 9.13 p.m., police were informed that on a railway siding in the village Kotomierz close Bydgoszcz were opened carriages, resulting in a fallout of maize grain carried there.
The police from Bydgoszcz took action, but from then on the full case began to live its life and with the flight of lightning almost all over the world. According to the media, about 160 tonnes of Ukrainian maize were poured from transport, which supposedly was headed for a port in Gdańsk to embark on a further journey.
The media said that the maize was poured out by unknown perpetrators, which in itself was obvious, but at the same time it was here, due to the exceptional sensitivity of the subject in the context of tense Ukrainian-Polish relations and large protests by farmers, any hidden meaning.
The point is that the word "unknown perpetrators" has been utilized in Poland for a long time as a euphemism indicating possible links between these perpetrators and peculiar services. I get the impression that erstwhile it comes to this peculiar case from the Kotometer, this treatment can be justified.
This may be indicated by the velocity and professionalism with which information about the event itself was prepared and spread. As early as 3 hours later, erstwhile police were notified of the incident, a video appeared on the Internet, recorded from a drone that showed, from various shots, carriages with scattered corn at the Kotometer station.
This film, with music background in the form of the song “The Heart of Liberty” by late deceased artist Witold Mikołajczyk, more known as Witek Musician Street, was published on the FB of the National Commission WZZ “August 80”. Thus, it can be seen that someone, despite Sunday, went to quite a few problem to paper the event in Kotometer with a drone and release it into the network where it began its life.
Even the Al Jazeera station commented on the issue of dumping this grain, which gave its comment the title: Ukraine demands Poland punish protesting farmers for destroying 160 tons of Ukrainian grain in an attack at a Polish railway station (Ukraine demands Poland to punish protesters farmers for destroying 160 tons of Ukrainian grain in an attack on Polish railway station).
It can be seen that this station attributed the origin of the full event to Polish farmers, which is neither certain nor obvious.
Many commentators in the network are trying to identify perpetrators and, of course, there are besides those who would like to blame Polish farmers, which may be in the opinion of the current power to reduce the support for agricultural protests. Others besides point to the Russian agent. Here, too, the goal is obvious, although the hope of gathering it is alternatively weak, because, according to the website Politics on the Internet, on the basis of an analysis of 55,000 references to farmers' protest, we now have 2 dominant narratives: EU criticism (including Green Deal) – 52.4 percent, and Ukraine criticism – 47.6%. Even if this service does not supply full reliable data, small effort is needed to find that the 2 narratives mentioned in the network are indeed overwhelming.
Farmers, as the perpetrators of the Kotometer incident, should not be allowed to exclude, and as far as the agency is concerned, it should not be just 1 way, but it should be allowed that motives, as well as possible combinations, could be different in this matter. Just callback the 2013 case, erstwhile it was besides “unknown perpetrators”, and by default participants in the independency March, were to burn the defender box before the Russian embassy. And then it turned out that there might have been a completely different individual behind this event, and it was in the ministerial position, which should have just taken care that nothing happened to this booth.
In addition to all this, it should be said that the value of this shed corn was alternatively small, due to the fact that counting, at the current price, about PLN 500 per tonne, it will be about 80 thousand, that is, what it costs 1 low class, a passenger car. Is it worth making a large deal about it?
