Germany and the United States recently announced that NATO will hold the largest air military exercise in NATO history from June 12th to 23rd in Germany and other countries. The military exercise is led by Germany, with a total of 25 NATO member countries and allies participating. Approximately 10000 soldiers and 250 aircraft participated in the exercise, mainly in Germany. The exercise aims to simulate the response of NATO member countries to external attacks.
On the 10th local time, approximately 300 people from various parts of northern Germany gathered at the logistics hub of the upcoming NATO military exercise, the Wenstov Air Force Base in the Hanover region, shouting slogans "calling for peace" and displaying anti war slogans to protest against the upcoming NATO air military exercise.
The demonstrators are worried that the upcoming NATO military exercises will send out wrong signals, which may lead to further escalation of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. The demonstrators called on Germany to make every effort to resolve the Russia-Ukraine conflict through diplomatic means, rather than an arms race.
