        Polish farmers stopped protesting at the last blocked border crossing with Ukraine on Monday, Kyiv and Warsaw said, suspending a blockade that has
        dragged on for months and soured bilateral relations.
        
        Ukraine's farm minister hailed "constructive work" by Poland to lift the blockade in a statement, saying negotiations with Warsaw and industry associations had not been easy but that "the main thing is that we have a result".
        
        "Fortunately, we have all directions on the border with Poland unblocked," Ukrainian border guard spokesman Andriy Demchenko said, adding that Polish farmers had freed access to the Rava-Ruska crossing.
