Frankfurt, Germany — Recent anti-right wing protests have been occurring across Germany, including in Frankfurt, as a response to a meeting of right-wing extremists and members of the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party.
This meeting, held in Potsdam, discussed migration policies including the deportation of migrants and minorities. The protests have drawn widespread participation from various sections of society and have seen significant numbers in attendance.
In Frankfurt, around 35,000 people gathered to protest against far-right extremism. The protesters in Frankfurt, along with those in other cities, were responding to the alarming details of the plan discussed at the Potsdam meeting.
