Therefore, it's kind of ironic, as those laws are "standard" in many EU countries. Nevertheless, people even in those countries now become very upset about the Ukraine banning headgear......
Are any of those laws EU-mandated though? Because while the bulk of legislation in member states comes from Brussels, and there is a lot of harmonization effort, it is mostly focused on economic regulations.
German parliament passing a law carries no obligation for other countries to adopt similar legislation.
It's ironc as much as the fact that in many EU countries, when people protest, they don't get brutally beaten, if they're lucky, or kidnapped, tortured and thrown into the fields, possibly dead, when they're not, or that doctors and journalists are not being shot and killed, and so on.
