BERLIN, January 26. /TASS/. A demonstration against supplies of German tanks and weapons was held on Thursday night in Munich.

The protest was organized by the Muenchen steht auf movement. Videos were posted on the Telegram channel of its organizers.

Hundreds of people marched along the city accompanied by drummers. Activists carrying flags and banners with calls for peace and criticism of weapons supplies to Kiev gather on the city’s central Marienplatz square.

Prior to the demonstration, its organizers said that the topic "can only be peace." They call for "peace without weapons" in Ukraine and for ending "the economic war as another form of warfare."

The German government decided earlier to send 14 Leopard 2A6 tanks to Ukraine. Apart from that, Berlin will allow reexport from other countries. Russia’s Ambassador to Germany Sergey Nechayev slammed this decision as "extremely dangerous," as it "raises the conflict to a new level of confrontation."
