On 29 May, De Gaulle left France for Baden-Baden in West Germany. Rumours spread that he had resigned or that there had been a military coup. In fact, De Gaulle was talking to the French military high command, making sure that they would support him.

The next day a carefully managed, but huge, counter-demonstration by De Gaulle supporters blocked the Avenue des Champs Elysées. The President called early elections (which he won easily the next month).

Christmas Eve 1961 put five young people at City Hall Square in Copenhagen and began a hunger strike.

They protested against the Danish gluttony and demanded solidarity with the starving masses of the Third World.
