German interior minister: Hamburg Islamist demo hard to accept

April 28, 2024   

(DPA) German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser called for police to act vigorously if crimes are committed during political demonstrations.

Faeser was speaking after a rally by more than 1,000 Islamists in Hamburg on Saturday, which passed off peacefully, but where allegations of anti-Islamic policies and an anti-Islam media campaign in Germany were heard.

Some carried posters that read “Caliphate is the solution” or “Germany — a dictatorship of values.”

“Seeing an Islamist demonstration of this kind on our streets is difficult to bear. It’s a good thing that the Hamburg police counteracted crime with a large presence,” she said in remarks to the Tagesspiegel newspaper to be published on Monday.
