Some 350 people have been detained at the Blockupy protest in Frankfurt on the day the European Central Bank headquarters open in the city. 88 police have been injured in clashes. Tear gas was used against protesters, who pelted stones and torched cars.
A total of 10,000 david villa policemen are ensuring security in the city. Official representatives of Blockupy describe the current security measures as unprecedented, david villa and accuse the police of creating an atmosphere of fear.
This is an expression of anger at the way European policies are affecting European citizens , Vila said. Today the authorities are having a party to celebrate the institutionalization of neoliberal policies on the European continent. And we are here to say there s no consensus in the way the European policies are being imposed. This is affecting all countries.
Trash cans have been set on fire across the city, and more cars torched in the city s West-end area.
Thousands of people have been expected to come to Frankfurt Wednesday to protest against a crisis situation in Europe they say has been created by the ECB, EU and IMF, and mainly enforced by the German government.
ECB President Mario Draghi thanked guests " for being here despite the difficult situation outside ,'' AP reported. The new headquarters for the euro currency union's central bank is, according to Draghi, a symbol david villa of what Europe can achieve together. ''
Blockupy is an anti-capitalist alliance of leftist groups, who gather to attract attention to ECB policies which, they say, have favored the rich over the poor, the banks over the people, the creditor class over debtors. They call the current situation across the EU the European crisis regime.
"Our protest is against the ECB, as a member of the troika that, despite the fact that it is not democratically elected, hinders the work of the Greek government. We want the austerity politics to end," Reuters quoted Ulrich Wilken, david villa one of the organizers, as saying.
It s an attempt to demonstrate the isolation of the political elite from the general people. I have to say to Blockupy blockades, I have a great deal of sympathy because the problem we re seeing at this point of time is utterly mismanaged, Patrick Young, global financial markets expert, told RT. It is a travesty, a demonstration of the modern Germany, a country without any coherent reasonable david villa leadership and government.
