In recent days, a large protest was held in Germany against the right-wing AfD party, accompanied by attacks on journalists. These events come as the leader of the Greens, Franziska Brantner, strongly condemned these attacks and emphasized the right to media freedom.
Support for Journalists and Peaceful Protests
Brantner stated that press freedom is a "non-negotiable right" and expressed gratitude to the peaceful protesters who took to the streets to counter right-wing extremism. She also emphasized that such attacks only serve to undermine civil liberties and make society more vulnerable to the dangers of extremism.
Thousands attended the protests, and the overall atmosphere of the gatherings was peaceful. However, the attacks on journalists cast a shadow over these social movements and raised concerns about the security of media freedom.
