Police Break Up Protest During ARD 'Sommerinterview' With Markus Söder

Police ended the unannounced gathering within minutes, reflecting recurring attempts to interrupt ARD’s outdoor political interviews this season.

Overview

  • Around one to two dozen men in black T-shirts assembled on the Reichstag steps with black and yellow flags and a large banner.
  • The banner read "Stärkste Kraft im Land – uns übertönt ihr nicht," and participants repeatedly shouted "Remigration."
  • Berlin police dispersed the group after a short time and took at least one person away, according to a dts reporter.
  • The disturbance occurred as the interview was apparently ending or already finished, leaving it unclear whether it will appear in the recorded program.
  • The incident follows July’s loud disruption of Alice Weidel’s ARD interview by the Zentrum für politische Schönheit and other recent attempts to use the broadcasts for protest.
