Berlin Prepares for Right-Wing Demonstration and Counter-Protests in Friedrichshain

The third right-wing extremist march since December is expected to draw 1,200 participants, with ten counter-protests planned in response.

The right-wing demonstration, titled 'For Law and Order. Against Left-Wing Extremism and Politically Motivated Violence,' is scheduled for March 22, 2025, in Berlin.
Approximately 1,200 participants are expected for the march, which will pass through Friedrichshain, a historically left-wing area.
Ten counter-protests have been announced, with several hundred participants expected to oppose the demonstration.
Police are preparing for potential clashes and may adjust the planned route for safety reasons, particularly through areas like Frankfurter Tor and Rigaer Straße.
Previous demonstrations under the same title in December 2024 and February 2025 were marked by violent incidents, including attacks on SPD campaign workers.
