Frankfurt (Oder) (dpa) - On the border with Poland in Frankfurt (Oder), numerous opponents of the corona restrictions are expected at a demonstration today.

For several months, opponents and proponents of drastic protective measures in the corona pandemic have faced each other, sometimes irreconcilably.
The police said on Friday that there was the legally protected right to hold meetings - this could be used with minor restrictions without violating the law.
In Leipzig, a demonstration of the “lateral thinking” initiative got out of hand on November 7th.
Tens of thousands of people demonstrated close together without a mask and did not comply with the Corona requirements.
