Hundreds of people attended a far-right Generation Identity rally in Bonn on Sunday against Germany’s signing onto the United Nations’ migration pact.
Protesters chanted “Fortress Europe, seal the borders” and held signs and placards attacking German Chancellor Angela Merkel and criticising the UN’s Global Compact for Migration.
Dozens of counter protesters rallied against the right-wing protest, with the two factions being held separate by police.
The non-legally binding Global Compact for Migration was concluded in July and is expected to be adopted by UN member states in December.
