Tens of thousands of people took part in the event ten days before the Dutch parliamentary elections, demanding a stronger response from the government on climate change.

“As a climate justice movement, we must listen to the voices of those who are oppressed and those who fight for freedom and justice. There can be no climate justice without international solidarity,” Thunberg said during her speech, according to the AP agency.

After the invited Palestinian and Afghan women spoke, Thunberg continued her speech for a while before a man joined her on stage.

Greta Thunberg’s confrontation did not spoil her mood

However, Thunberg apparently did not let this spoil her mood, later photos from the protest in Amsterdam show her with a broad smile on her face.

The 20-year-old Swedish climate activist caused quite a stir in late October when she posted a photo of herself on Instagram with the caption “I stand for Gaza.”
