In front of the private property of the Saxon Prime Minister Michael Kretschmer (CDU) in Großschönau, citizens protested against the Corona measures on Sunday morning.

According to the police, the CDU politician spoke to about 30 people at the garden fence.

After about 15 minutes the debate ended and everyone left the place.

“It wasn't a threatening situation for me.

It is important to me to talk to people in the hope of convincing them, ”said Kretschmer of the German press agency.

However, when a woman demonstratively pulled a scarf in the colors of the Imperial War flag over her mouth, a limit had been reached for him.

“Then I broke off the conversation.

That went too far, ”said the 45-year-old.

During the conversation, he was concerned that the protesting people in front of his house "show such an unwillingness to take note of realities."

According to the police, a large number of the people gathered did not wear mouth and nose protection and only partially kept the required distances.

The officers established the identities of those who were still present.

In addition, a complaint was made on suspicion of violating the Assembly Act.
