Angela Merkel has denounced the emergence of ‘another form of anti-Semitism’ from refugees of Arab origin in Germany.
The German Chancellor made the remarks in an interview with Israeli television on Sunday after an alleged anti-Semitic attack in Berlin on Tuesday provoked uproar.
According the German tabloid Bild, the main alleged perpetrator, who surrendered to police, is a Syrian refugee who lived in a centre for migrants near Berlin.
‘We have a new phenomenon, as we have many refugees among whom there are, for example, people of Arab origin who bring another form of anti-Semitism into the country,’ Merkel told the private Channel 10 network.
In the interview, Merkel said the German government had appointed a commissioner to fight against anti-Semitism.
‘The fact that no nursery, no school, no synagogue can be left without police protection dismays us,’ she said.
