Protests by environmental activists in different parts of Germany

According to the report of Tasnim International News Agency, quoted by Germany's “NTV”, the environmental activists known as the last generation again held protests to protect the climate by blocking roads in several places in Germany. Of course, unlike the previous campaigns, other participants did not stick to the roads and streets.

Around 130 protesters in Berlin blocked the Warschauer Bridge, a central transport link in the Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg district, police said. They stopped and sat on both lanes of the road many times. In Munich and Regensburg, police counted 120 and 150 demonstrators in reported and unreported rallies, respectively. The police, however, announced that there are no major traffic and transportation problems in Munich.

According to police, 30 environmental activists from the movement also blocked the access road to the Sassnitz shipping port near the terminal for liquefied natural gas (LNG) Rogen. Police forces initially allowed the protesters to do their work, but after a few hours, these protests were ended. A police spokesman told the German news agency that most of the participants were removed from the street by officers. Some groups voluntarily left the street.

The spokesperson of this protest movement, known as the last generation, had previously said that the protesters plan to stay on the streets for a longer time, probably until Sunday. Actions were also taken in Freiburg, Karlsruhe and Stuttgart Airport. The police there spoke of a peaceful demonstration. In Bremen, about 100 climate activists occupied a street intersection in the city center.

Other protests were planned in Cologne and Leipzig. Protesters in the last generation movement called for climate protection, including the complete abandonment of coal, oil and gas fuels. Since the beginning of 2022, the group has organized road blockades in which participants attach themselves to streets and roads. However, the protest movement has recently announced that it will change its strategy and avoid sticking to the roads in the future. This movement has called for massive gatherings across the country.

These days, Germany is facing a wave of strikes and protests from different sections of the people in protest of the existing conditions.

Recently, there have been widespread and continuous strikes in various parts of this country, including airports, public transport workers, doctors and teachers, and so far, negotiations with employers to resolve disputes have not yielded results.

German farmers, together with their colleagues in other European countries, have organized protests against the policies of the government and the European Union and have created disturbances.
