Climate activists spray Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate with orange paint
- The Last Generation, a Germany-based activist group, sprayed orange paint on the columns of the Brandenburg Gate during a protest, leading to their arrest and an investigation into property damage.
- The Last Generation advocates for Germany to transition away from fossil fuels by 2030 and take immediate measures to cut emissions. The group's provocative actions, such as gluing themselves to roads and blocking traffic, have triggered a law enforcement crackdown.
- Berlin Mayor Kai Wegner condemned the Last Generation's tactics, stating that their actions not only damage the historic Brandenburg Gate but also hinder important discussions about the future. Germany aims to achieve net-zero emissions by 2045 but has missed annual targets in recent years.
