Protesters in the German city of Munich called for peace talks on the Russia-Ukraine conflict and an end to the supply of arms to Ukraine on the second day of the annual Munich Security Conference. More than 500 activists gathered at one demonstration spot near the city center, holding signs with messages like “stop the war” and “weapons bring death and destruction”. They opposed the discussions at the conference on further stepping up military support to Ukraine and criticized the United States and NATO for causing the conflict and its escalation.
