Poland vows to launch Baltic Sea canal construction to bypass Russian waters
Link: http://tass.com/economy/1022890
Leader of Poland’s ruling Law and Justice Party, Jaroslaw Kaczynski, promised that work on a canal running across the Baltic Spit (or Vistula Spit, as it is called in Poland) to connect the port city of Elblag with the Baltic Sea would start soon, despite Russia’s protests that it might harm the environment.
The politician said the project is important for the county’s independence and sovereignty, because right now vessels have to sail through Russia’s territorial waters to get to Elblag. Kaczynski pledged that work would get underway in a month’s time. Replying to a question about Moscow’s opposition to the project, he said Russia had always been against it, but Poland was not going to abandon its plans.
