Halsema said yesterday in response to the pro-Palestinian demonstration that counter-demonstrations fall under the fundamental right to demonstrate within sight and hearing distance of the purpose of their demonstration. “Whether you agree with it or not: these are the rules that we have agreed upon in this country. As long as it is done peacefully.” That ultimately did not happen, so the riot police intervened, she said. At one point, the group of pro-Palestinian demonstrators moved towards the station. Many of them were eventually arrested.
