STORYLINE:
Around 150 far-right protesters marched through downtown Berlin on Saturday demanding an end to Germany’s current immigration policy a day ahead of the general election.
They were blocked several times by leftist counter-protesters, who blocked the marching route wherever they could.
A large contingent of police kept the two opposing sides from clashing with each other.
German voters go to the polls Sunday to elect a new parliament that will determine how the country is run for the next four years.
Europe’s biggest economy is the 27-nation European Union’s most populous nation and a leading member of NATO, as well as the second-biggest weapons supplier to Ukraine, after the United States, following Russia’s full-scale invasion in 2022.
Germany’s next government will be central to Europe’s response to an assertive new U.S. administration.
