Was it a crime? Firefighter celebrated farmers at protests – case is being investigated. A firefighter in uniform in front of the fire station in Berlin-Wittenau signaled his support to farmers driving past in their tractors - with applause and waves of la ola.
The Bavarian Farmers' Association has already threatened more severe protest actions if the federal government does not give in. In principle, civil servants are obliged to remain neutral while on duty, the Berlin fire department explained. A video of the firefighter can now be found on YouTube.
