More than 200,000 protesters held a rally against far-flung extremism before the country’s general election in Munich, Germany on Saturday.
Far-wide for Germany, or AFD, the immigrant option, second in recent elections and voters have inspired widespread protests across the country before putting their ballots on 23 February.
According to the German DPA news agency, protest against Munich’s Theresianevisi – where the octabestos takes place every year – brought a significant large crowd. The organizer of the incident estimated that the crowd could be up to 320,000 people, many of which indicated against AFD such as “racism and hatred is not an option.”
The protest was supported by activists as well as Munich Film Festival, Church and Munich Football Club FC Bayern and TSV 1860, others. Police told the DPA that the protest was peaceful.
Similar protests attract large crowds on Saturdays in Hanover, Rostock and other places in Germany, reflecting other demonstrations across the country in recent weeks.
Last month at Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate, a huge mob played a whistle, sang antifasist songs, and condemned the AFD. Activists said they hope that the rally would be attracted to other far-flung parties in Europe and the new administration of US President Donald Trump.
The protesters have recently opposed the center-Rongat leader and Front-Roner Frederick Merz in the upcoming election, and last month his Christian Democrats sent the Parliament proposals for the difficult new migration rules that received the support of AFD. .
The protesters say that Merz and his party broke the promise of Germany’s Nazi by all Democratic parties, which with the support of nationalist parties like AFD to ever pass any rule or resolve in Parliament, sometime No. Merz insisted that his situation is unchanged and he will not work with the party and will not.
The 12 -year -old AFD entered the National Parliament in 2017, benefiting from the decision of the then Chancellor Angela Merkel two years ago to allow the number of migrants in the country.
