German Navy welcomes the citizens of Iceland on board - video and photos

Even though the mayor of Reykjavik,did not want to welcome the german Navy to Reykjavik, the citizens of Reykjavik did not agree.
The German Navy invited people to visit and go abourd the Navy ships in Reykjavik today,and many people came and enjoyed the German hospitality.

The German sailors are very friendly,and as you can see on one of the photos - the even posed for photos
But for the first time in German Navys history, the mayor of the city they are visiting,refuses to welcome them ,and and meet the Commander of these Navy Ships.
Every time that the German NAvy visits citys, the mayor of that city welcomed them.
But here in Reykjavik , mr. Jon Gnarr,Reykjaviks Mayor,says, no.
Mr. Jon Gnarr was voted last year, for the political party ,wich name is - The Best Party.

Also ,according to Iceland media, the Mayor also refused them to park their ships in the old harbour, in the city of Reykjavik.
So they parked their ships at another harbour,still in Reykjavik,but not in the harbour that is in downtown Reykjavik.
