A rally against the military operation against Iran was held in Berlin.

On April 4, a rally was held in Berlin against the military operation of the United States and Israel in Iran. Footage of the situation in the German capital is published by Izvestia.

The footage shows people marching through the streets holding anti-war posters and banners. The flags of the Persian Gulf countries were also in people's hands.

One of the protesters said that Germany opposes the conflict in the Middle East around Iran. He also claims that his country is actually involved in the conflict, giving the United States the opportunity to use its military facilities.

Another participant added that he considers NATO and the United States to be a criminal association against which other countries will begin to unite.

"We need to think about whether these structures even have features of fascism. There has already been a similar precedent in history — a challenge to the whole world from German fascism. And as a result, a significant part of the world opposed him," he said.

They think of themselves as a bloc: the split between the United States and the Europeans has intensified in NATO

If Washington withdraws, the alliance may cease to exist — how likely is this scenario?

On the same day, Belgian Defense Minister Theo Franken suggested that US President Donald Trump might withdraw troops from Europe, close military bases and stop transmitting intelligence due to the situation around Iran.

On April 1, Trump announced that he was seriously considering the US withdrawal from NATO after the alliance refused to help in the conflict with Iran. According to him, the North Atlantic Alliance has never influenced him.
