Interior Senator Andreas Geisel comments on the current situation
“The manifestation it was peaceful at first; But no gaps were kept, no mouth and nose protection used, and more and more came over the course of the morning. Extremists who have taken over the demonstration.
Police made several announcements to comply with the rules. When this did not happen, he announced the dissolution of the event, before which the Organizer the assembly declared terminated on his own initiative.
The participants did not want to leave, so the police did Water cannons are used. Until 3 in the afternoon there was 190 arrests, there were smoke bombs and violent Arguments. And also injured policemen, to whom I wish a speedy recovery.
The clear objective of the protesters was to break the rules and reach the Reichstag. The police did behave properly and advertise all actions. It should be clear that the state cannot tolerate this.
The police used water cannons, but with them A sense of proportion and proportion., there was not a strong jet of water, but a spray to make it uncomfortable. We notice an aggressive mood again Extremists have also taken over the demo today and tried to get other meeting participants instrumentalize.
Anyone who uses violence and deliberately breaks the rules of the state and wants to show that the rule of law has supposedly lost its power is it must be launched with the means of the constitutional state.
I would have liked to avoid the use of water cannons to de-climb, but today we had no other option to clear the space in front of the Brandenburg Gate with these technical means. ”
