Germany has issued a travel advisory to its citizens travelling to the United States, citing risks linked to immigration enforcement and public-order situations.

Germany’s Federal Foreign Office said on Tuesday that German citizens should be aware of demonstrations and clashes with American migration and security authorities.


quote:

The advisory is not a political statement about the U.S. but aims to give impartial information for German citizens travelling to the country at a time of increased tensions during President Donald Trump's aggressive deportation drive.

Protests have been held in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and other cities against the actions of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Border Patrol officers enforcing Trump’s immigration crackdown.

Federal agents deployed to the city under the Trump administration's "Operation Metro Surge" shot and killed U.S. citizen Alex Pretti in Minneapolis on Saturday and fellow American Renée Good on Janauary 7.

The statement said, according to a translation, that in Minneapolis and other cities, demonstrations sometimes lead to violent clashes with the migration and security authorities and warns people to be vigilant and stay away from crowds where violence might occur.

The advisory asks people to check out local media, stay away from crowds of people in which violence could possibly occur and note existing ID requirement in several states. "Keep calm and follow the instructions of the authorities and local security forces," added the statement.

Last March, Germany updated its travel advisory for the U.S. to emphasize that a visa or waiver allowing entry does not guarantee citizens to enter the U.S. after several of its citizens were detained at the border.

Other than that , zero degree temperatures and six feet of snow on the streets, downtown Minneapolis is a vacation paradise this time of year.

We've discussed no go zones in Brussels, Paris, and London here before.

Meh. It's a travel advisory. They aren't telling German nationals not to travel here. USA has travel advisories all over the globe, for one reason or another, including Germany.

And initially expecting they'll drive between the three cities since they'll be in the U.S. for two weeks.

I got caught up in a German protest / riot in Munich one time. We don’t have shite on those folks. They would laugh at our riots.

Seems perfectly reasonable. I certainly want the US advising me of similar risks in other countries.

It's crazy even in all these warnings how many international visitors road trip the west. Raising the price for non residents for the national parks was long over due, just hope the actual funds go to the parks, got a feeling that isn't happening.
