00:57 could we read on the barriolet signs of the demonstrators.
01:00 The 200 gatherings planned in the country, as for several weeks, testify to the shock
01:06 caused by the revelation on January 10 by the German investigative media
01:09 of a extremist meeting in Potsdam, near Berlin, where, in November, a project

01:19 Give a signal.
01:22 On the background of economic slowdowns and inflation, the AFD continues to progress
01:26 in polls, a few months after three important regional elections in the east of the country.
01:32 I don't know if these demonstrations will have an effect on the AFD voters, but it is
01:37 important to give a signal, because humanity is disappearing in relations between people
01:41 and we need more humanity and respect for our differences, said AFP
01:46 Margré Hürth, a 53-year-old educator in Berlin.
01:50 The gathering was organized by the Hand in Hand movement, which brings together
01:55 nearly 1,800 organizations, including the organization Friday for Future and the
02:00 Citoyenne Compact Alliance.
02:02 Martin Rau, a 38-year-old university professor, came from Sweden for the occasion, I came
02:08 to give the example.
02:09 I was born in Germany.
02:12 Jonas Schmid, a train driver from Bremen, said that it was necessary for all of us to
02:17 give our strength, not to give up, because the AFD is strong and the idea is to intimidate us.

02:26 The forces of the capital's order have indicated that they have deployed 700 police officers
02:30 on site.

02:51 Lantag building, according to a local media.
02:54 Whether in Ezenach, Hamburg or Berlin, in small and large cities throughout the country,
03:00 many citizens gather to protest against oblivion, against hatred and
03:05 incitement to hatred this weekend too.
03:07 A strong sign for democracy and our constitution, said Federal Chancellor Olaf Scholz
03:13 on X Saturday morning.
03:15 The AFD is developing more and more radical forces.
03:18 It is a deeply far-right party.
03:22 I am literally shaken every time I hear these hateful speeches, said Marcus Söder,
03:28 the head of the CSU, in the newspaper Rheinisch Post.
03:31 Where are we in Germany when a government calls for a demonstration against a
03:35 part of the population, for that matter by declaring the AFD on X, denouncing a campaign
03:41 against the only real opposition party in Germany?
