As part of the international action days against the war in Kurdistan, various groups from the climate, the anti-war and the Kurdish movement against Mercedes demonstrated in Munich on Saturday. The activists demand that the Daimler AG discontinue the delivery of military vehicles to the Erdoğan regime and other dictatorships. In addition, the negative role of the car lobby in terms of transport policy and climate protection was criticized.

In addition to Kurdish activists, people from the anti-war movement and various climate groups such as Ende Gelände and Fridays For Future took part in the demonstration.

"The demo today has shown that it is possible to bring together different struggles for climate justice and peace," said the Munich solidarity alliance for Kurdistan.

"And Mercedes can expect that this is only the beginning. We will not stop until the power of the car companies is broken and no war equipment is delivered to Turkey, Saudi Arabia and other dictatorships. "

Further protests and actions against the auto industry are due to take place next weekend. In Frankfurt, climate activists want to block the International Motor Show.
