Polizisten führten Klimaaktivistin Greta Thunberg mit anderen Demonstrierenden vom Platz vor der Arena ab. Die Beamten errichteten Absperrungen.

Dies sollte ein Ort für Musik, für Party, Toleranz und kunterbunten Spaß sein. Doch auf Malmös Straßen herrscht angespannte Stimmung. In der südschwedischen Stadt bleiben die Sicherheitskräfte rund um den Eurovision Song Contest (ESC) alarmiert. Denn so sehr die Ausrichter betonen, ein unpolitisches Event zu feiern - in diesem Jahr lässt sich der lange Schatten des Gaza-Kriegs von dem bunten Show-Spektakel nicht fernhalten.
