AMSTERDAM - Dutch military police began forcibly removing a group of environmental protesters from the main hall of Amsterdam’s Schiphol airport on Saturday after they refused to leave.
Hundreds of protesters had arrived for a demonstration against “the big polluter” Schiphol organized by Greenpeace, which had been granted a permit to protest outside the building only. The group rejected that condition, saying citizens’ rights to peaceful protest should not be restricted. Greenpeace is demanding that the airport draw up a better plan of action to curb the pollution it generates.
“After multiple warnings to leave Schiphol Plaza peacefully, the Marechausse has now begun arresting Greenpeace protesters,” the force said in a statement.In its call to activists to attend the protest, Greenpeace said on its website: “We’re in the middle of a climate crisis, but the big polluter Schiphol is being allowed to keep growing and polluting even more.”
