Adhesive activism should be on hold for the time being: The “Last Generation” wants to pause actions until the end of next week.
After that, it should continue.
Berlin - For the time being, there will be no more gluing on Germany's streets: According to their own statements, the climate activists of the group "Last Generation" will no longer take part in protest actions in Berlin and Munich until the end of the coming week.
This was announced by the group on Friday evening.
The activists hope for action in the last week of the Bundestag session in the current year.
At the same time, the "Last Generation" warned against a restart of the protests with more force.
"Last Generation" wants to "train" newcomers properly and come back with more people
In the future, even more people will probably be involved in the protests.
The time will be used to “properly train and involve the many people who are currently joining the movement in order to come back with even more people”.
The federal government can still act in the fight against climate change.
"It's not a question of ability, but of will, and we can only sincerely hope that she still lives up to her responsibility," the statement said.
Climate activists recently blocked operations at BER Airport
Not only roads were recently blocked by the activists.
The climate activists of the "last generation" were heavily criticized on Thursday and Friday after some of them paralyzed flight operations at the capital's BER airport.
They climbed through the security fence and entered the airport grounds.
Numerous politicians called for consequences, including the expansion of preventive custody in the Federal Police Act.
Spokeswoman Aimée von Baalen (23) said about the protest break: "I think we all - society and politics - can use a breather to calm the heated spirits a little".
