Several hundred Kurds and supporters demonstrated against Turkish politics in Berlin today. According to the police, the approximately 700 demonstrators ran from Potsdamer Platz to the Brandenburg Gate. They protested against “attacks by the Turkish state in Kurdistan”. The demonstration was stopped several times because participants shouted forbidden slogans related to the Kurdish Workers’ Party PKK, said a police spokeswoman. The police wrote of two arrests on Twitter. Part of the elevator was closely monitored and documented for possible criminal proceedings. There were kicking and punching movements in the direction of emergency services, including with flagpoles.
