Oslo ∙ Swedish environmental activist Greta Thunberg, who led a demonstration in Oslo for tribal land rights, was detained twice by the police. The protest began on Monday demanding the removal of 151 wind turbines installed in the residential area of the Sami tribal community in central Norway. Yesterday, Greta was forcibly removed by police while participating in demonstrations in front of the Environment and Finance Ministries in Oslo.
In 2021, Norway’s Supreme Court ruled that wind turbines installed on farms in Norway as part of Europe’s largest offshore power project violated the civil rights of the Sami community. The strike was protesting the non-removal of wind turbines even after the verdict.
