Greta Thunberg REMOVED With Force By Police Called To Intervene At Oil Tanker Protest

The protest, organized by the youth group Ta tillbaka framtiden (‘Take back the future’), has been ongoing for six days and has seen protesters block roads, sit on top of fuel tankers, and scale buildings to disrupt operations. Thunberg, who has gained worldwide recognition for her school-strike protests, was pictured sitting on the ground in front of a waiting fuel truck while holding a protest sign. Photographs from a Swedish news agency published on Monday showed Thunberg being physically carried away from the road by police officers.

While British newspaper The Daily Telegraph claimed Thunberg had been “arrested” at the protest, Swedish media does not mention an arrest. Instead, Swedish top-selling newspaper Aftonbladet reports that police sources say officers are considering charging Thunberg with one count of trespass and three of disobeying a lawful order by a police officer. The protesters were asked to leave and refused, leading officers to “move” those sitting on the road to allow traffic to start moving again.

The police action to clear the road was only temporarily successful, however, with the protest group claiming a sixth day of protest on Tuesday and saying that police had once again dragged “young people away” from “the sixth blockade of the week.” Those removed disobeyed orders to stay out of the road, as the group noted shortly after the removal: “now everyone is back out on the road,” and there was a “long queue of tankers” after two protesters climbed onto one of the trucks.

This is not the first time Thunberg has had police physically lift her to clear a sit of protest. Just this year, Thunberg has already been carried by police at a wind turbine protest in Norway and at a coal protest in Germany. The German rally generated headlines after police officers were pictured standing and posting with Thunberg, leading to accusations that her arrest and physical removal were little more than a staged photo opportunity. German police reacted angrily to the allegations, despite the widely-shared video from the scene, insisting there was a “mundane” operational reason for standing with a smiling Thunberg and that the situation was being weaponized by those with “political motives.”

Despite having to erase her hair-raising predictions of the world's end as they fail to materialize, Thunberg has lost none of her ardent spirits, saying earlier this month she has decided to graduate from school protests. As reported and in her own words, she has only just “begun to fight.”
