A protest action coordinated with local authorities under the slogan “Say no to racism” gathered 1,200 people, but was initially peaceful. But later, when about four hundred people remained in the streets of the German city, the demonstration got out of hand: the demonstrators refused to comply with the request of the police to stop the procession, which was going over beyond the agreed program, and bottles, stones and bags of paint were flown at the police. In some cases, the German police had to use force.Concerning at least 20 demonstrators, the police have opened a preliminary investigation.The Alternative for Germany (AfD) is a far-right German party that often espouses Euroscepticism. In particular, the political association calls for being guided primarily by the interests of the FRG in international politics. The other day, the AfD called for the repair and continued use of the Nord Stream, and earlier opposed the spending of federal budget funds for military assistance to Ukraine.
