Zara Riffler described the decision as good news and wrote that the administrative court had dismissed a lawsuit against the ban on prayers at a Berlin high school.

The court justified this with the interest in maintaining school peace. She wrote that the ruling was not yet legally binding. https://t.co/Egwu6cjZBh #Bildung #Religionsfreiheit #Gerichtsurteil (translated)

Zara Riffler wrote that Marco Rubio gave a speech in front of the Acropolis in Athens on the revival of the values of Western civilization.
