Some also asked why it was a Russian tank and not a Ukrainian one. Amsterdam’s latest exhibit sparks mixed reactionsĭuring the opening ceremony on May 25, Halsema said the tank served as a “warning” that “peace, humanity, democratic values and freedom cannot be taken for granted,” adding that it “reminds us that we must defend democracy every day.” In spite of these words and De Balie’s intentions, so far the appearance of the tank in Amsterdam’s city centre has been met with mixed reactions.Īs Halsema started her speech, protestors shouted “this tank should not be here” and “get rid of it!”, while others threw flowers and rose petals on the tank.
