This is the scary part! USAR wants us to take a page from the German book on dealing with minorities. Yikes! As if we never learn from history.
Hi,
there might be some misinformation in regard of what germany is going to do.
1. Germany fully accepts that minorities are existing within it´s borders and that these live in the framework of the constitution. Notwithstandding, they do have to accept this framework.
2. Germans are debating now about the extent of integration of immigrants and what exactly are the values the country is founded upon. This debate is quite lively and a lot of stupid things are said. The Greens want a religious holiday for the muslims, the conservatives want, that the country is based upon christian traditions etc.
Still, we see, that the hardworking turkish shopowner is much closer to us, than a lot of others.
There are problems and there are setbacks. But I cannot see, that Germany´s policy towards foreigners is going to change. On the contrary, we are debating now, what has been a neglected fact for years: that we are a country people a migrating to and what the effects are.
