ALBAWABA - Dutch police arrested on Wednesday a man who protested French President Emmanuel Macron's visit to the Netherlands.
Upon Macron's arrival at the University of Amsterdam's science campus, a protester ran and shouted: "We're here" ("On est là") even if Macron doesn't want us, we're here!"

The protester was overwhelmed by a military officer, then he was whisked away in a police vehicle.
The French president visited the university on the second day of his official tour of the Netherlands.
Many students, including those from ROOD, Activistenpartij and Amsterdam Autonomous Coalition, rallied against Macron's visit to the Amsterdam Science Park.
On Tuesday, demonstrators shouted anti-Macron slogans and raised banners at the start of the Frenchman's speech about Europe's future.
