230 protesters show strength against AfD in Kiel - police in action!

In Kiel, about 230 people spontaneously took to protest against the AfD, while the party received a guest from their parliamentary group in the state office. At the event, which was opened by the defense policy spokesman Rüdiger Lucassen, the alleged “inability to defend the Bundeswehr” was discussed. The political left, led by the alliance "Round Table against Racism and Fascism", set a clear sign against the right -wing populists with its protest.

The police protected themselves between the demonstrators and the AfD members and, as a precaution, blocked the access routes. There were occasional conflicts in which a person was arrested for dangerous bodily harm. After two hours and several speeches by the protesters, the event dissolved peacefully. In addition to Antifa activists, groups such as the "Grandmas against Right" and unions who showed their solidarity. The police reported a largely quiet course of the demonstration, despite the heated atmosphere.
