BERLIN (dpa-AFX) - The German Airports Association ADV has made an offer of talks to the climate activists of the Last Generation. In an open letter, the ADV stated: "It is undeniable that climate change is one of the greatest challenges of our time. Criminal blockades of airports do not contribute to solving it".

According to the association, it wanted to inform the climate activists about the current climate policy and the measures taken by airports. The association also wanted to talk to them about the impact that blocking the runways would have on airport security.

The Last Generation had invaded the airports in Frankfurt am Main, Koln/Bonn and Leipzig/Halle in recent weeks. Among other things, the climate activists had stuck themselves to the taxiways and temporarily paralyzed air traffic. Investigators have since carried out raids against those involved in Frankfurt /good/DP/mis
