Anger as Berlin refuses to light Brandenburg Gate in Russian colours after attack
None
A decision by the city of Berlin not to illuminate its most famous landmark, the Brandenburg Gate, in the colours of the Russian flag to show solidarity with St Petersburg after an attack has provoked anger, with critics calling it a scandal.
In the past after attacks in other countries, the city has beamed the colours of flags of France, Turkey, Britain and the Netherlands onto the Brandenburg Gate, which divided East and West Berlin in the Cold War.
