Greta Thunberg fined for disobeying police at climate protest

Key Facts

Speaking to the BBC shortly after, Ms Thunberg said "Once again, I think it's painfully clear how absurd it is that it is peaceful climate protestors, like us youth, who are facing repression and are being faced with legal punishments in court for acting against this extremely deadly system, and for trying to change things."
The latest two charges come after she and a small group of activists had blocked the main entrance to Swedish parliament in protest of what they described as political inaction from the government on the climate crisis.
After refusing to comply with police orders to move, Ms Thunberg and a number of other activists were forcibly removed by police on two days in a row in mid March.
Last July, Ms Thunberg was fined after being found guilty of disobeying a police order to leave a climate protest in Malmo in June, where she joined a group of protestors in blocking a road for oil truckers in the harbour.
