UNITED STATES EMBASSY THE HAGUE, THE NETHERLANDS
Security Message for U.S. Citizens: Protest on Museumplein in Amsterdam
December 6, 2012

The U.S. Mission to The Netherlands informs U.S. citizens of a protest scheduled for Friday, December 7, 2012, on the Museumplein in Amsterdam.

The protest will be held near the Consulate between 16:00 and 17:30. Police estimate that between 30 to 50 people will participate in this demonstration, which will protest the continued incarceration of convicted murderer Mumia Abu-Jamal in the United States.

In general, protests in The Netherlands are peaceful. Even demonstrations intended to be peaceful, however, can turn confrontational and escalate into violence with little warning. You should avoid areas of demonstrations, and exercise caution if in the vicinity of any large gatherings, protests, or demonstrations.
