Condom sales soar on Polish-Belarus border
Warsaw - Condom sales have soared on Poland's border with Belarus after Belarusian border authorities recently began to demand each motorist and passenger be in possession of a condom before entering their country, according to Polish media reports.
Even Roman Catholic priests, who vow celibacy, are required to be in possession of a condom in order to cross the border into Belarus.
A Belarusian diplomat accredited to Poland has denied knowledge of any formal regulation requiring visitors to Belarus to carry condoms.
But train passengers travelling into Belarus via rail are apparently exempt from the condom requirement, Polish media reported.
