As the DPA points out, many of the protests are marked by “marches”, especially in recent weeks. The reason is that the organizers do not report these events to the authorities as official protests. An estimated 100,000 people took part in similar protests last Monday.
“Freedom!” Nuremberg demonstrates the freedom of freedom !!

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz announced on Monday that Germany, despite a sharp increase in new cases of coronavirus infections, will not tighten anti-pandemic measures yet, but will not proceed with their release. On Monday, German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier warned of threats to social reconciliation over the violence during protests against the government’s anti-civic regulations. Specifically, in this context, he criticized the attacks on medical clinics and vaccination buses, or death threats addressed mainly by municipal politicians.
