“Erdogan Not Welcome” platform, which represents numerous organizations, initiatives and associations, organized a demonstration in capital city Berlin against Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan who is on an official state visit in Germany.

The march continued to the surroundings of the presidential palace.

Chanting “Murderer Erdogan”, “Terrorist Erdogan” and “We don’t want the dictator”, demonstrators ignored the bans imposed by the German state on the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) and Kurdish People’s Leader Abdullah Ocalan.

At the end of the protest march, a huge photograph of Ocalan with balloons was let fly into the air and a huge PKK flag was unfurled. The demonstrators, made up of mainly German citizens, did not disperse despite the provocations of the German police.
