In einer Sternstunde der Demokratie ging die #Polizei beim #G20-Gipfel 2017 mit äußerster Härte gegen Demonstrierende vor. Vergangene Woche stellte die Hamburger Staatsanwaltschaft die letzten Ermittlungen wegen #Körperverletzung im Amt ein. 👉 ​https://www.nd-aktuell.de/artikel/1178255.polizeigewalt-g-polizeigewalt-bleibt-komplett-straflos.html

Letztes Verfahren eingestellt: Polizeigewalt beim G20-Gipfel in Hamburg bleibt straflos.

Gegen 1.286 Beschuldigte hat die Staatsanwaltschaft zum #G20-Gipfel Verfahren eingeleitet, ein Ende ist nicht absehbar. Keine einzige Anklage gab es jedoch gegen Polizisten. Deren Rechtsbrüche sind eine "gemeinschaftliche Tat", meint @matthimon. https://www.nd-aktuell.de/artikel/1178263.g-das-urteil-steht-fest.html

Jegliche Strafverfolgung der #Polizeigewalt beim Hamburger #G20-Gipfel 2017 verlief im Sande, es gab keine einzige Anklage. Trotz erdrückender Hinweise stellt die Staatsanwaltschaft nun die letzten Ermittlungen ein. https://www.nd-aktuell.de/artikel/1178255.polizeigewalt-g-polizeigewalt-bleibt-komplett-straflos.html

Mehr als sechs Jahre nach dem Hamburger #G20-Gipfel wurde jetzt das letzte noch laufende Verfahren gegen Polizisten eingestellt, die unrechtmäßig Gewalt gegen Demonstranten oder Passanten angewendet haben sollen.

»„In NRW Zecken verprügeln“, sei das Ziel eines bevorstehen Einsatzes, schreibt der eine, und erklärt:

Gemeint seien damit linke Demonstrant:innen.

Und einer der beiden Beamten zieht nach einem anderem Einsatz seine „persönliche Bilanz“, mit der er „äußerst zufrieden“ sei, da er nun „neues Pfefferspray“ brauche, und ein Demonstrant, „der gegen meinen Trupp gelaufen“ sei, danach „nicht mehr laufen“ konnte.«

#LossAndDamage Fund:
Falls wie die UAE alle Mitgliedstaaten der #G20 (inkl. #G7 und #BRICS) sowie der #OPEC jeweils 100 Millionen US-Dollar bereitstellen würden, kämen insgesamt 3️⃣,1️⃣ Milliarden U$ zusammen.
Falls diese Länder so viel bereitstellten, wie jetzt pro Land zugesagt wurde (inkl. #EU-Mitglieder), wären es nur etwa 930 Mio. U$.
Ob diese Summen ausreichen, die klimabedingten #Verluste und #Schäden in den ärmsten Ländern abzudecken, erscheint sehr fraglich.

Russian president Vladimir #Putin told the leaders of the Group of Twenty (#G20) on Wednesday it was time to think about how to stop the “tragedy” of the war in #Ukraine which entered its 22nd month.

Putin said the invasion was necessary to overcome what he called a “coup”

During his roughly 17-minutes-long speech, it appeared that only a handful of countries tuned in to hear him speak. including Spain, Singapore, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Korea, and hosts India

"Sechseinhalb Jahre nach dem G20-Gipfel in Hamburg hat die Staatsanwaltschaft immer noch einen starken Verfolgungswillen und wünscht sich Haftstrafen – für das Mitlaufen auf einer Demonstration, bei der es zu massiver Polizeigewalt und zahlreichen Verletzten kam. Im sogenannten Rondenbarg-Verfahren beginnt der Prozess gegen sechs Betroffene am 18. Januar 2024 in Hamburg und soll bis in den August andauern. Eine Verurteilung würde eine Einschränkung des Demonstrationsrechts bedeuten.

Im Sommer 2017 hat in #Hamburg der #g20gipfel stattgefunden. Zehntausende haben gegen das Gipfeltreffen der zwanzig wirtschaftlich und politisch mächtigsten Staaten der Welt protestiert. Die Stadt wurde von einem gigantischen Polizeiaufgebot belagert, es gab Campverbote, Journalist*innen wurde die Akkreditierung entzogen und Demonstrationen wurden zerschlagen. Bis heute verfolgt der Staat diejenigen, die damals für eine gerechtere Welt ohne Ausbeutung und Unterdrückung auf der Straße waren."

Statement der Roten Hilfe zur gestarteten Hetzjagd auf Antifaschist*innen im Konext des #Antifa Ost Verfahrens
„Die Öffentlichkeitsfahndung stellt den Genossen an den Pranger und ruft die Bevölkerung zur Denunziation auf. Damit ist die gesamte antifaschistische Bewegung gemeint. Ähnliches kennen wir bereits aus den Fahndungen rund um die Proteste gegen den #G20-Gipfel. Die Grundrechte des Beschuldigten werden damit massiv verletzt, es findet eine Vorverurteilung mit Ansage statt.
Denn die Bundesanwaltschaft hatte im Antifa Ost Verfahren bereits zur Urteilsbegründung angekündigt, viele weitere Verfahren eröffnen zu wollen.
Die Art und Weise der Fahndung zeigt den unbedingten Verfolgungswillen der Repressionsbehörden gegen alle Personen und Gruppen, die sich in #Leipzig und der Region gegen den Nazi-Terror wehren.
Nach all den Skandalen betreffend der Ermittlungsbehörden ist es vermutlich die Flucht nach vorne, um den Kampf gegen rechts zu kriminalisieren und die Verstrickungen von Beamt*innen in den Neonazi-Sumpf zu verschleiern.
Antifaschist*innen sollen dämonisiert und als sog. Kriminelle abgestempelt werden."

Thank you, #Canada, for being the first of the #G20 states to get serious about eliminating fossil fuel subsidies, and for urging the other G20 states to do the same.

(#paywalled)

"Such subsidies hit records last year…Major world economies…surpassed $1 trillion in subsidies for the first time in 2022. That’s a fourfold increase over subsidy levels in 2010, the year after G-20 nations agreed to phase out support for fossil fuels."

G20 poured more than $1tn into fossil fuel subsidies despite Cop26 pledges – report

"The G20 poured record levels of public money into fossil fuels last year despite having promised to reduce some of it, a report has found."

"Fossil fuels release pollutants when burned that heat the planet and make extreme weather more violent. They also dirty the air with toxins that damage people’s lungs and other organs. Scientists estimate the air pollution from fossil fuels kills between 1 and 10 million people each year."

"In June, a report from the World Bank found that “by underpricing fossil fuels, governments not only incentivise overuse, but also perpetuate inefficient polluting technologies and entrench inequality...Of all subsidies to the energy sector, about three-quarters go to fossil fuels."

“With fossil fuel companies gaining record profits amid the energy crisis last year, there is little incentive for them to change their business models in line with what’s needed to limit global warming...But governments have the power to push them in the right direction.”

I see plenty of climate realists being mislabeled as 'climate doomists'. However, the real doomists - the ones rapidly dooming us to a potential tipping nexus and mass cascading shift into a new Earth system state - are #BigOil and the #G20 https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/aug/23/g20-poured-more-than-1tn-on-fossil-fuel-subsidies-despite-cop26-pledges-report
