Böller ban in Berlin? Politicians are alarm before New Year's Eve 2023!

Berlin, Deutschland - nag/nag editors -

The discussion about a firing ban on New Year's Eve in Berlin is heating up again! With the turn of the year in sight, the focus is on demands for a city -wide ban on fireworks. The memories of the chaotic scenes of recent years are still fresh, and many citizens fear for their security again. The police, fire brigade and emergency services are alerted and prepare for possible riots.

The events of New Year 2023 are a warning example: In the capital there were violent clashes in which 145 people were arrested and 355 criminal and administrative offenses were initiated. The concern for brutal scenes in which fireworks fly through the streets is growing. Politicians raise the alarm and demand measures to prevent the incidents.

The legal hurdles for a ban on firecrackers

Despite the haunting claims, it looks bad for a comprehensive ban on firecrackers. In an answer to a request from the Green MP Vasili Franco, the Senate made it clear that the hands are bound. The explosive law does not allow far -reaching prohibition zones. The Senate had already tried to limit the burning of private New Year's fireworks in 2019 and 2020, but without the support of the federal states and the federal government, the advance remains without effect.

The police can only ban fireworks in certain areas to ward off specific danger sites. These measures have already been taken in recent years and are expected to be used again this year. Where exactly and to what extent the regulations will apply is still unclear, but the announcement should be made in good time before New Year's Eve. So the Berlin citizens have to prepare for an uncertain New Year's Eve!
