Berlin’s police union classified the European Championship quarter-final between Turkey and the Netherlands as “the ultimate high-stakes match”.

“When you look at the large Turkish community in our city, there are even greater concerns about how to deal with this operation,” union spokesman Benjamin Jendro told the news portal. Watson In this context, call Saturday’s game in Berlin “the ultimate high-stakes game”.

About 3,000 police officers will be on duty during the game. “Every possible situation will be alerted by the service, and of course we hope to have support from the federal and state governments,” Jendro said. The operating area is not limited to the “four hotspots” at the Olympiastadion, the fan mile and fan meet-and-greets at Breitscheidplatz and Hammerskjöldplatz, “but also includes Kudamm, Neukölln, Krone, Itzberg, where fans will take to the streets or drive.

The visit of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan did not change the plan of action. Jandreau said he was expected to abide by the “rule of law framework” and made clear: “For us, saluting the wolf is considered a symbol of right-wing extremism.”
