Because they want to have the eyes of global press on Germany

• dotancohen 2mo ago
  Instead of the eyes of their own politicians? Are their goals to actually effect change in Germany or to disparage Germany in the eyes of the global press?

    Almost every German politician, most of the police and half the population of Germany speaks English, even though it shouldn't be used for official business. It's no barrier.

      Language is also a cultural signifier. English might not be a barrier, but protesting in English certainly communicates that the protesters care not for German culture.
      • mitxela 2mo ago
        Isolating itself from the world isn't part of German culture either
