Protests by truck drivers across the Western Balkans against new European Union border rules are disrupting major trade routes and raising concerns over fuel shortages and mounting economic losses, authorities and business groups said this week. The border blockades have also stalled transport along a vital corridor linking the European Union with Turkey and the Middle East. In Bosnia, businesses have already lost an estimated 8 million euros ($9.55 million) since the protests began, according to a Foreign Trade Chamber survey. Truck drivers say the EU rules unfairly target them. “We demand that the European Union urgently stops the discrimination of Bosnian truck drivers,” said transporter Zijad Saric.
