Blockade of Power Stations and Control of Shipments - Montauban

Discussion between the Ukrainian-speaking truck driver and Mr. Fabrice Dupuy (Fnsea82) using a translator on his smartphone. A truck driver who speaks Ukrainian cannot open the doors of his truck (registered LT at the front and PL for the load), but a misunderstanding and translation issue disrupts the inspection process because the doors are actually locked with a seal and the driver cannot open them before delivery. There was a moment of tension, but the discussion resumed with the intervention of another truck driver who spoke French and Ukrainian with a police officer, and in the end we followed the truck driver to the Action depot. Inspection of a truck. Agricultural mobilization. Blockade of power stations and control of shipments. JA and FDSEA Tarn-et-Garonne. Farmers angry about the health management of contagious nodular dermatitis (DNC) and the signing of the EU-Mercosur agreements. Viti. Macf. France, Montbartier, January 15, 2026.
