COP 15 Demonstrations: 1st Day


12 December 2009. Police broke the demonstration against the COP 15 in Copenhagen with riot vans during the protest. Almost 400 people were blocked inside the trap. Police forced the people to sit down in the middle of the street. Then they were taken away handcuffed and put on to buses.
Today is the first day of mass demonstration in Copenhagen against COP 15 summit that reached its middle. Although the demonstration was peaceful, still, hundreds of people (700-900) were arrested in Copenhagen today after some of the demonstrators threw bricks in police. Several activists from Budapest who went to Copenhagen to participate in the demonstration were arrested today, but they are already released.
