Hundreds of people protested in London and Berlin on Sunday in solidarity with demonstrations in the United States over the death of a black man shown on video gasping for breath as a white policeman knelt on his neck in Minneapolis.

The protesters knelt in central London’s Trafalgar Square, chanting “No justice, no peace”, and then marched past the Houses of Parliament and finished up outside the U.S. Embassy.

Several hundred protesters also staged a rally outside the U.S. Embassy in Berlin, holding up posters saying “Justice for George Floyd”, “Stop killing us” and “Who’s neckst”. The death of George Floyd after his arrest on Monday has triggered a tide of protests in the United States, unleashing long simmering rage over racial bias in the U.S. criminal justice system.

Some rallies have turned violent as demonstrators blocked traffic, set fires and clashed with riot police, some of whom fired tear gas and plastic bullets in an effort to restore order. Reporting by Elizabeth Piper and John Sibley in London and Reuters TV in Berlin; Editing by Frances Kerry

arifhameed15 This was artificial union of black and white in USA. Racism will never ends. there should be separate countries for black and white as their recognition

EdwardTRoberts3 Bless the UK.

欧洲是属于黑人的

Why are they protesting?, this is America’s issue

Ternyata orang' USA Banyak yang bodoh. Pantes aja gampang di setir sama politikus.

arifhameed15 Racism never ends in USA and west. I dont know why ? Allah Created us all and said all are equal and only those are better having better ethics and behaviours. we are not competing in this regard WHY? every one ask himself

Look Trump, the world is watching you distroying our country. Resign , world leaders will never trust you again, not that they do now.

Give me a freaking break. This is hysterical.

And Trump postponing the G7 because he says the G7 members 'do not represent what's going on in the world' - It's clear that Trump does not represent what's going on in the world and only achieving the isolating of the US.

Everybody is in one with justice however I think at this point only ZOOM protests should happen ... let’s not forget the fact that mass gathering call for easy virus transmission.

Thank you London and Berlin

ICan'tBreath

More of politics and leftists agenda than real protest. Riots in the name protests , violence and torching public-private property.

Montreal also had protests in Solidarity today too.

Where's Covid 19? Is it so afraid of riots ?

THANK YOU ALL FRIENDS! CHANGES ARE COMING!

Free Palestine

Dankeschön Berlin!

Thank you London and Berlin! We're in a struggle for our very lives and freedom! We're fighting now with the hope our children and grandchildren won't have to re-fight this same battle of racism! We're very tired but determined to win this battle! Racism BlackLivesMatters

HassanEVawda Why is our government not condemning the US Govt, Why our govt not support the demonstrations in USA in the same way our govt supports the demonstrations in Hong Kong?..

Thank you, London and Berlin. We see you ♥️

Around the world people are going bankrupt and hungry with the lockdown. They are scared, angry and cornered. This is so highly predictable and this is just the first in a line of many protests to come. They will get more violent because government keeps pushing people

I bet there was no looting or destruction of police vehicles

KatKai90 Thank u u k

Ahí están los ANTIFA sufragados por SOROS

Well done!

the fake virus routine fell apart, some people are capable of critical thinking, the global coup has been canceled. 99% vs. 1% elites = GAME OVER the plan fails

Gotfa love our true allies. Especially after all the times putin and his puppet have shit on them. Thanks GREATBritain GermanyDiplo

I think we should join them here in 🇰🇪 & all African states should do the same!No one has a right to take one's life other than God & those cops ain't God neither are the Whites who discriminate against the blacks & us Africans!!

We must stop this kind of atrocity on US soil! We must stop this kind of killing on US soil! We must stop this kind of murders on US soil! We must stop this domestic terrorism on US soil! We need Amendment 28, i.e. Freedom of Breath!

Xristos10818751 Yeah, this isn't about that at all.

Loads of murders every week who protests for them. Definitely not this lot these idiots are political nothing else

pyz30 Piñera, mira lo que viene post pandemia. Vas a ser muy feliz.

White guilt, angst and fear at its finest. Every race, culture, color and country is intolerant, hateful and racist against an other, this human trait will never go away. What needs to be addressed is the continuing brutality by police when they arrest, detain and in custody.

I have a friend in London, Shane is his name, and he is very upset about it, he said he is ashamed to be white. I wonder if he went to the protests.

Europe is the most racist

Black White Hei, jos äitini, ja isäni olisivat olleet tummaihoisia, niin Timo - poika olisi tummaihoinen kanssa. Hei, jos toinen olisi ollut tumma, toinen vaalea, niin Timo olisi tummanvaalea poika. Hei, jos molemmat olisivat olleet vaaleita (olivatkin), niin Timo olisin minä.

USdisintegrate

Thousands protested peacefully in Toronto yesterday.

Can we borrow some of their police to police our police?

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

The world is awake to American racism, not only to coloured people in America, but all over the world !!

covid19 proof

We appreciate it.

It should be noted that pro-Iranian circles have been reported distributing intolerance against Mr. Trump, taking advantage of protests over the killing of George Floyd at the hands of police in Minneapolis.

Thank you world.... hopefully, we’ll soon be with you again. 😢

campvolant Et en France ? 😷 😡

Hundreds? Massive

Wow George Soros reach is really world wide!

that's right; get sucked down the rabbit hole with the rest of the idiots over here

🙄

yes please stop kill us

When the British and the Germans are on the same side against you, you know you done messed up...

Crazy

Wow ! When I first saw this I thought it was another advertisement for that Zombie game. My bad. Curious to see how this is spreading worldwide and not just the States.

SPREAD THIS AROUND!

WTF?!

The world stands with the resistance. TrumpResignNow

Pass this on

No offence whatsoever with what's happening in America, but this is just fucking stupid. This horrible incident is American's problem. They are the one's who need to fix it. What it the point of protesting in these countries ? Idiots. If they want to help, join the fundraising.

Social distancing anyone ?

Covid loading...😳

no veo ninguno de estos pendejos protestando por esto su bandera mas que por los derechos humanos es una que busca la supremacia de la izquierda!!

Respect JusticeForGeorge

This is how an espontaneus, legit, pacific protest looks like. Not like the USA protest leaded by Antifa looking for desestabilizaron and caos.

Their' White' privilege huh, the one that's trying to keep Chinese Communist Party's off your neck? Go with them then. Go ask China for some land, hope they don't put you away like the Uyghurs?

usdisonfire racismno peopleareequal weareworried

America Spring ..!!! Where is the Democracy & the Human Right ?!!

And why didn’t they protest in solidarity with Hongkong? StandwithHonKong

When will people actually realize! not black! not white! ALL lives matter! stop Racist media & artificial murderers political people with an agenda from provoking violence sensation! Using skin color to promote racism! It’s a soft target You are just a pawn! In their game!!

Kris_Sacrebleu tRUMP has reduced America to an international punchline. TrumpResignNow

Do something good for your fellow humans and community GeorgeFloydChallenge

I´m getting tire to see this black and white bullshit going around the world, like if they are the 2 most supreme races.

Corona going to have a field day

people? i only saw terrorists

We appreciate the support but I think they should be protesting their own governments who have been in bed with Beijing and the CCP for a really long time and have made terrible decisions.

USA is an exstremely racist country that world knows along with UK. HumanRights violation are rampant in these 2 countries along with China. But they behave like the policeman of the world. GeorgeFloydMurder

Hitler Triumph must be defeated

romeisburning

I wonder what has Hong Kong done to these people. They are fighting for freedom and democracy. Why there are no protests or riots to support Hong Kong. If protests are done to support HK, at least the EU can push to do something.

Kris_Sacrebleu From a Brit in Germany showing support for JusticeForGeorge Thank you Sanchooo10

Never, ever say that a junkie cannot change the world.

Goes to show you, criminals get support from other criminals all over the world. Birds of a feather... if these protestors riot, afford themselves the same response the rioters get here!

we need to sanction the US!

Yet they cannot stand for HongKong.😀😀😀

This just confirms this is about way more then racism in the US. This is about inequality. Let me offer an idea to fix this. The max pay difference for any employer between employees can't be more then 45%.

That makes no sense

Hopefully it can remain a legitimate protest and wont be hijacked by organized white liberal extremists US and Non-US interest groups like the United States was.

7/A hell of a lot of those rioters were White Leftists!

6/

5/No one should be able to turn a neighborhood into a war zone! I hope they get to the bottom of this & soon. Any number of terrorist groups could be involved.Lord knows, they've had years to get entrenched here! People need to wake up, my race is being used as a WMD.

🤣🤣🤣 if muslims do this they'll call us terrorist and send us to the deepest jail

3/However, preliminary autopsy results don't show any signs of strangulation or asphyxia. Floyd had intoxicants in his system + hypertensive heart disease + high blood pressure. The stress of the arrest may have contributed to his death but it looks like it didn't cause it.

3/AG Barr will be working with MN authorities to contact trace those arrested to find out who they are & who they're connected to. That's the first time anyone's done that! Chauvin was a bad cop--no doubt & he probably contributed to his death & should be prosecuted.

All the animals

At least some of these have face coverings. One problem is that what starts out as well-intentioned protest can easily turn into thoughtlessly-intentioned anarchy and/or riot. Whether or not it does, one big problem is that coronavirus may resurge soon in London.

Seems to be expanded to all continents

The African Americans protest against the poor treatment by the US police. It seems that African Americans want a better deal. More of the annual U.S. DGP for better public services. With better working civil-rights laws.

Please keep it peaceful!!!

Not one country in Europe is racism free.

How Fing ridiculous. This proves they want free 4K tvs, too👈

it will get worse😤😤😤🤔🤔🤔

professionals protestors of soros Agenda world know now !

To the persecuted American people , The person who goes by the name Stephen Nabeel , is a reporter who works for Alhurra network , he supports and incites murder committed by police officers against American people . He states that these peaceful protests are mere gatherings of

Americans could learn from the Europeans. The police there don't dare to enter crime-ridden black neighborhoods in South London or to Little Congo in Brussels and they have fewer riots. Let our police stay out of African American neighborhoods and see what happens.

Nancy Pelosi:HONGKONG PROTESTER it's a beautiful sight to behold!SHAME ON HER!!!! NOW AMERINCAN PROTESTER IS DOING THE SAME THING

WTF happened to corona virus…

Quite an excuse to riot

Barely anyone for big cities, And No support for HK against the tyrannical oppression by CCP upon the Uighurs and millions of Tibetans murdered by China? Thought so. Millions killed by China but hey not enough virtue signalling there. Not like here - can Post on Instagram

Я знала это

if there was any doubt this was all astro-turfed, there is none now.

This has nothing to do with Floyd. Nothing but leftist agitation and propaganda with Reuters support.

Stop inciting riots in EU.

The outrage is international and it needs to be.

JFC, this is stupid.

How many black people were unjustly killed by the police this year?

Hell yeah! America needs to see we aren't alone, even tho our gov has abandoned us.

Because they are idiots

Want Kalki to come to the earth now! 😱😱

Europe needs democracy!

The world is watching America, legislation needs to happen or this will continue.

Awesome!! Burn some shit for us!

The United States needs democracy
