Greta Thunberg apologizes for 'against the wall' comment.
Thunberg told the crowd in Turin that world leaders were running away from their responsibilities to fight climate change.
“We have to make sure that they cannot do that," she said."We will make sure they, that we put them against the wall, and that they will have to do their job and to protect our futures." The expression “putting someone against the wall” in Swedish describes a situation when someone is forced to address difficult questions or a difficult situation.
But some right-wing voices on social media interpreted her comment as a call for violence against politicians.“It goes without saying but I say it anyway,” she wrote.
