The incident occurred when Merkel was just about to begin her speech at an event in Berlin dedicated to her Christian Democratic Union Party’s 70th anniversary.
The demonstrators chanted “OXI,” which means “No” in Greek, and displayed small signs with the same message.
Security officers were quick to remove the protestors…

The US is playing a dangerous game of nuclear brinkmanship. Robert Scher, undersecretary of defense, has even floated the idea of a nuclear first strike against Russia. “A second option could ‘look at how we could go about and actually attack that missile where it is in Russia,’ Scher said. Yes, that’s how crazy the warlords of Washington are: in their demented calculus, nuclear war is just another “option.”
