Videos like this one have been circulating online theyre said to show far right mobs carrying out racist attacks in the eastern german city of camden on august twenty sixth i dont want. But in a controversial interview with the daily build newspaper germanys Domestic Intelligence agency chief said he had no evidence that the racist attacks occurred he said a widely circulated video could be fake deliberate misinformation but he did not say which one. Hansgeorg mawsons remarks contradict not only reports from eyewitnesses journalists and alleged victims the intelligence chief also contradicted chancellor Angela Merkels comments just a few days ago my near tunis that we have seen pictures that clearly show hatred and the persecution of innocent people and we must distance ourselves from such behavior. Theres been something of a consensus among members of nichols governing coalition that the races violence and chemists should be condemned and several german politicians have criticized mohsen for a second guessing what really happened. Instead of speculating in public mr marson should present evidence. Revise the. Can the newer vehicles are to be there ive seen the pictures ive heard the eyewitness accounts i know about the many reports from journalists and i think a prudent Security Agency head would be well advised to provide facts for such a controversial thesis to avoid exacerbating matters.

When migration debate has exposed a deep rift between germanys east and west and he says he is off the collapse of communism the once divided country remains fall from unified he is chief political as having went to the eastern state of saxony to find out why. Just over an hours drive from kenya its the small town of meissen is feeling kemet says current political pay. To the man who led saxony is political Education Agency for eight years is running for mayor here in the city center many saxes tell him they feel hard done by the media over the events in canada this is. A bully who despite the fact that ordinary people will that everybody was portrayed as right wing which is all i have to tell you i lived through communist east germany and this is more of the same us right this is. Almost three decades after german reunification germanys east seemed still haunted by its communist past. Or. Theres a line of demarcation between eastern and western europe that run somewhere through germany. I cant tell you where exactly that line is. Missing but i think we need to think about the fact that parts of germanys east culturally historically and politically more like poland and hungary or other eastern states. People are more generous they have their own sense of cultural identity and they didnt experience the waves of liberalism pluralism and the americanization that swept across western europe and they could guns and in meissen almost a third voted for the anti migration a. F. D. Party in the last general elections yet it has one of the lowest proportions of foreigners in germany and meissen has its own mark of same left by an arson attack on a migrant shelter three years ago as we talk outside we spot a former far right n. P. T. Party leader who lives across the road. Admits he met the arsonist the night before the attack by the debate is never about whether they can come but the city council had promised that he would talk to all of us living here before anything happens and that didnt happen as we read in the paper that an asylum shelter would be opened here in four weeks thats not right. That doesnt justify an arson attack. Yes that was stupid you know well that was more than stupid house was the attack cost my son its reputation but its only a symptom of political failure says this ensured that we and of course that doesnt excuse an arson attack but that explains a little of the outrage at the lack of political communication question and that seems to be a basic problem. Proud of their tradition many saxons are suspicious of change they werent asked about many tell us candidates could happen anywhere. Saxony has a problem that is political consensus here its Regional Elections in bavaria and the state of hesse including european elections next may that will show whether that extends to the whole of germany and potentially beyond.
