The great noise of the tractors of German farmers in the heart of Berlin may have died down, but every week rural demonstrations continue across Germany.

The pattern is familiar: farmers blocking roads and city centres with tractors and blocking political events, especially those of the coalition parties, which have been in the farmers’ crosshairs for months.

The police union is calling for a ban on the use of tractors during agricultural demonstrations in the future.

This was stated by the head of the union, Jochen Kopelke, in the Rheinische Post newspaper. “We point out the dangers of tractors during demonstrations and appeal to common sense,” Kopelke said,in an effort to prevent a repeat in Germany of the kind of chaos and paralysis that continues to arrive from France or Belgium.

According to tagesschau.de, Green Party co-chairwoman Ricarda Lang, who was also prevented from arriving at a party event, said that it was not allowed to cancel political events for security reasons. “It is a situation we should not get used to in a democracy,” she said.

“It is an absolute disgrace for democracy that attempts are made to prevent dialogue,” the deputy speaker of the federal parliament from the Greens, Katrin Göring-Eckard, commented for her part on German radio.

However, the Minister for Rural Development, Jem Oezdemir, chose not to put all farmers “in the same bag” and spoke of “individual cases” that cause problems. However, both Lt. Robert Habeck of the Greens and the Minister for the Economy, Robert Habeck of the Greens. Christian Lindner of the Liberals have also been “targets” of farmers’ anger in recent months.

Meanwhile, the opposition continues to keep a close eye on developments on the farm front. Christian Democrat leader Friedrich Merz condemned the obstruction of political rallies, but mockingly commented that the Greens in particular would have expected it.
