Ah, I see how it was done. So she was sitting down with a crowd, cops picked her up while she just continues that strange smile of hers. Then then put her down and she just stands, still smiling and posing with the police? So weird.
I think the police were given orders to very gently arrest Thunberg (that way she won't resist, protesting is not a crime, but resisting arrest is), and take her away from the crowd, then disperse the protesters. Taking her to police station is just a part of protocol.
This could be just a photo op for Thunberg, arrange by some green politicians, for mutual benefits. The arrest could be pre-arranged.
Or it could be something organic, the protesters simply invited her and she came, and the protesters called the press. Thunberg could have just realized what the police were doing, and being a smart girl she had no choice but comply, hence the smile.
