Demonstration calm at Safety Conference

munich - The demonstration against the Safety Conference in Munich went smoothly on Saturday. About 2000 demonstrators showed up in the center of the Bavarian capital. That was half less than the organization had expected. The dense snowfall could have been related to this.

The protest march went from the Karlsplatz to the Marienplatz, not far from the place where about 500 politicians and experts meet this weekend about the crises in the world, with slogans such as' Never again war ',' Lifting NATO 'or' War knows no winners '.

In addition to leftist groups and activists of the Peace Movement, several Kurds also joined. They mainly protested against the Turkish invasion in the Afrin region. 'No German weapons for Erdogan's evil practices,' was freely translated to read a banner. That was a reference to the Leopard tanks that would have been used against the Kurdish YPG militias in the northern Syrian region.

Although there were also banned Kurdish symbols to see, the police, which occupied 4000 people for the conference in Munich, did not intervene. She limited herself to collecting evidence.
