"I will not speak with hooligans; I will speak with farmers. Those who broke the law during the demonstrations and led to incidents such as the severe injury of a police officer will be held accountable. I do not regard them as farmer-protesters; I regard them as individuals who broke the law," said Tusk.

He added that he will communicate with farmers in any case and will seek ways to resolve their issues.
