A saying and im very proud of that happened off this dosa by disease and she has given me and many others here the possibility to stage and begin a new life here and i noticed that when i was following him after the selfie with the chancellor his life changed abruptly he was invited on to talk his picture was in the headlines at the same time he started learning german and his Refugee Center because he wanted to study but then in early 2016 the photo appeared on the social media sites of right wing groups he was portrayed as a syrian terrorist. Young jason book they posted that a terrorist had made the selfie with mrs merkel american on online right wing conspiracy sites he was accused of being the brussels terrorist or the assassin had by child plots and then one of the a. F. P. State associations connected him and his spouse need pixilated photo with other terrorist attacks. I shot him i always thought why did i make the selfies i didnt need it at all and id be left in peace and thats not the case i never alone not even today. Im asked motorman a sort refuge at a friends house he was threatened personally and was bombarded with hate comments the 2nd time his selfie photo was abused it is cited to take judicial action against facebook with legal and hate this time he was alleged to have set a homeless person on fire in the bar in some way he wanted to prevent facebook from further distributing the photo. Although he lost the case he doesnt think the fight was in bang mr bush does the going to do it was important to me that people should know the real story that who are we i ever saw what are syrians trying to achieve is good not to show there are of course people who have done along but thats not even one percent so what about the others this list would have to deal the rest of us want to study to integrate the learn the language quickly and gain a place at university where i did not speak she can go on as moto mani has managed to achieve this for almost a year now he has been studying Media Communications he feels comfortable at the university despite the fact that it is difficult studying in german and not his mother tongue. And then. Figure it out in the church that so many people supported me in the beginning and how to find the right classes and such but it was difficult for me when i started because everything is online on the internet made a smart feel i got lost several times. A. Modern money often visits the bundestag now that he has learned german he is interested in the countrys politics. So far he hasnt managed to meet im going to tackle again. As a shop actually made us smile i tried to contact her several times when i was dismissed but it hasnt worked out great and its difficult. This which would diminish him a Beautiful Image but i would be happy to talk to her personally but shits and nothing fyi cuz i have learned german after 5 years in the shop 0 feet and have so many topics that interest me and so many questions meet the music was also interesting. He has had a girlfriend for 6 months on a young ish from the ukraine who studies at the same university the 2 majo Freshers Party she was unaware of that he was the man in the medical sound feet. Of this im interested in the force that said that really here. He didnt tell me his story right away obviously once and parminder gets off from i miss him we met a few times on our been through that and then one night he told me his story or some to comment on the shooting him dead mr dog how he came to germany and what obstacles he had to face the start so that all fussed at alice i find it pretty special and im very proud of what he has achieved by that i said yesterday or to learn german hes had a job and now hes studying them are super but im sure he will finish his studies that he very successful and then nothing further to that hes now to look at people. As a friend 5 years ago we can achieve this it looks like we can wash out the 1st and only ive done it i had many plans many of which are behind me now i have achieved it but. For chancellor Angela Merkel voter also had consequences. People to germany washee still in control of the situation even now she rarely speaks about this time she receives recognition abroad and refugees on the balkan routes carry medical pictures with them but critics accuse her of using photos like the song to ensure that the stream of refugees increases for mrs merkel you have clearly misused your government mandate with a step down you can do this stuff with us be. Political opponents she became the target of a more harsh criticism. In the autumn of 2015 even more refugees started arriving at the end of october the small town of veg shiite in low above area made the headlines in a single day the austrians transported 1000. 00 people by bass to the border the mass found himself in a hopeless. Mission. This is a hotel its totally irresponsible of the austrian authorities to transport so many people to the border crossings or when they know that we dont have the infrastructure to deal with the there are children in a buses so ive got no option but it is a hand outside nicole that i shouldnt be happening cos its. For the federal Border Guards this was an unprecedented situation they requested reinforcements from the barbarian riot police. This photo was taken on that day a long line of refugees behind the Police Vehicle leading the line behind the van was this police bomb and. We managed to find her and they are foreigners from ports book she is still with the riot police and clearly hasnt forgotten that day. If its in the i always find it amazing i was talking about it with some friends the other day i went home turned on the t. V. And exactly that scene was shown as we were moving across the landscape with the refugees and in retrospect it always surprises me that we were an integral part of contemporary history otherwise this is all you know interestingly enough its exactly that picture i always have in mind when i think of the situation back then one of the 1st treks we made from the border directly through the a delicate lakeside lands. At the end of the war was this whole outside the village here the people were supplied with the things they most needed. Them and violence and this the impression that i got was that they were incredibly exhausted. I mean you have to imagine they were on the road for weeks sometimes months they were hungry it was cold it was already. And they didnt really talk very much i think. Many refugees were particularly afraid of Police Officers she remembers because on their way to germany they often had very very bad experiences with the police. In the hope we follow you can sense the refugees and security as soon as they see Police Uniforms and thats why i wanted to say were the good guys well we want to know why you. May have ems today experienced back then enable them to see their own countries in a different light. The city or when this became absolutely clear in the days that followed the humility to was what we have here in germany and how free and easy we can live here. Andrea foreigners working on a riot police exercise. If. She tries to encourage younger colleagues to deal with refugees without prejudices. Thats what you always have to look at both sides its easy to jump to conclusions and its the same a lead you to the pictures you have in your mind and for that theres always a person we hide everything and you always have to keep that in mind and. By the end of 2015 the attacks in cologne on new years eve fjords and confirmed fears and prejudices. Over most of the perpetrators had been living in germany for some time and did not come into the country with a wave of refugees the public mood started changing. A number of refugees alone caused fear refugees were attacked. Homes. A video from february the 18th 2016th abbas with refugees arrives in kos minutes and they ask about god it is received by an angry mob. The name of the boss company size or cannot enjoy your travels. Other than your call just to serve in the memories of that night are not good we were all hungry we hadnt eaten since morning insomnia fatigue headaches and then what happened here it was a huge shock for us i dont think well ever forget it failed solder and muscle ranch power on the boss that night. A young couple from iran who now live about 30 kilometers away in 5 or after 5 years their parents are visiting from iran he was 22 and his pregnant wife 18 when i plan to flee iran their parents knew nothing about it at the time many thought. If i told my parents i wanted to leave iran i would have no chance. Of. I thought about it but if i said i cant go on living there there would be other problem. If i moved into another city more problems would come and so one night my wife and i left iran that it. Was on october 25th team saga i can muster irans power fly to greece 5 turkey they arrived in germany via the balkan route and applied for political asylum which one year later in november 26th team was granted and usually they were accommodated in the municipality of mice and their 1st child babak a boy was born in december 25th. 2 months later the young couple were taken to their new accommodation in classmates together with 20 other refugees. We have on we were tired very tired we hadnt even i had a child he was only 60 days old to. Return with them to cost nets to the place where they were supposed to find a new home to live in. The bush hut here here is where the bus stopped. Or already waiting while. They were tractors and cars and the people were making a lot of noise and we thought whats going on whats happening. Why are these people here why are they shouting i did much very little to a man he was german and arabic and our friend was able to speak english. Called he explained that the locals didnt want us to live here. Village we are here live it. Vom fisheye was also on the boss he used to be a development waka working all over the world in afghanistan or pakistan bangladesh. He helped as a translator on the bus. Limit and its a business here thats me in the cab they were shouting we are the people thats what i heard at the end when i looked around someone went like this and then it just kicked off the refugees were totally afraid about getting off the bus with the children started crying in the women started crying and the men were also close to the line near them but you never knew when they might start throwing stones and move on the unfairness by this of muzzled. By. Even today 4th time fisher continues to process the events that happened back back. Home like this where i was traumatized so i do experience Something Like that in my own country especially having worked in so many other countries and ive never experienced anything like it so it was. Just over 4 years later and. Return to the village in front of the refugee home. A former neighbor suddenly appears from her house cars and. Lived in cars needs for 50 years or years ago yes hello good day. You know i have 2 children now i have a daughter now tough a daughter thats an awfully weve learned german you have to enter when i have work here now and even to faded yourselves with us home that cant have been easy. Yes and slowly we try to forget what happened to us here by what was what happened yes well dont talk about that and. Its difficult finding people in poznan its to talk about the events of february 26th seems. We. Didnt have any experience started off. A bit over ive heard about it from people who lived there id say its been blown out of proportion but. There are no refugees living here any more back than they were about 20 this innovation within kinda. Some of the children also went to the kinda sun little boy went to school and there was a list outside of all the things he needed to satchels for him everything was already there and here they are lots of people who struggle to buy all the things their children need to start School Nobody gives them anything and thats the other side of the coin its no wonder that people are angry they get everything handed to them on a plate always struggle to make ends meet. How much did the refugees construct in 2018 the federal office for migration and refugees calculated put a good 15000000000 of direct federal expenditure and another 7000000000 also of grants to local authorities was given for refugee Work Together about 23000000000. 00 the total federal budget for this year was over 340000000000. 00 euros and although criticism of foreign integration is often heard in the east relatively few refugees live there the lighter shaded regions indicate the least amount of refugees who were sent back in 2015 the a. F. P. Received more than a quarter of the votes in saxony in 2019 in the community of back to which classmates belongs 34 percent voted for them fisher is adamant. On this so we saxons are not all like that and its only a quarter of them then its still a minority. Order right. Cause and it is divided like saxony in south. We also met some people who are uncomfortable with the events that occur at. The show if it does just one hope that it never happens again. You can settle things calmly. People should think 1st and then speak question and not get excited and carried away with events of. Who were the people who surrounded the coach back that didnt want refugees in class notes. Are essentially leads us to 2 brothers thomas h. Was the director of the refugee home at bad time. And i have to remember. His brother cost an age i dont deny is the protest as explained in an interview and 2016 this woman nobody wanted this at least none of us who live in the village its difficult to explain the reasons why things happen and its certainly regrettable that it escalated as it did it was not what we were hoping to achieve when we met at the beginning definitely not. How do they look back on the events of 2015 we tried to interview the brothers but they didnt respond to our inquiries we decided to try and meet them we met a colleague in the parking lot at a cost n h es workplace and asked him to arrange an interview. Yes all right ill ask him to 10 minutes the man and he doesnt want to talk hes scared there were Death Threats back then we filed over 140 criminal charges for Death Threats through the internet and emails please turn the camera off from the local newspaper we learned that the. Age brothers are now both active in politics and represent the party in the local council. Sardonic and muscle rom spa found a new home just a few towns away. The children go to the local kindergarten. And soldering has a job with a local automotive supplier he takes his with him to visit. Those that think it is a dish out of the attic looking for new work again yes of course.

On our you both i wish. Thank you thank you and you played it through the snow. We havent seen you for ages because.

Were sold out i listened and i said what a shame recovered but i wanted to give one to the refugees who were so badly received here and then she said oh in that case i do have one available cannot. Just. Line increasing studios here in. Michigan using still further. In the meantime the iranian family feels more integrated in fribourg.

Since september 25th jane he has been living in iraq in a kurdish city of ambulance hours he today we had planned a joint visit to arabella with his sister team ice for the end of march to meet up with him shortly before our departure the trip had to be cancelled due to the corona pandemic. Until recently the refugee crisis seemed to be the biggest challenge germany has had to face since the 2nd world war that has changed now. Even the lives of the people we managed for this film have been transformed sometimes overnight. From freiburg centers this video i am betting for us the corona crisis has had. Serious consequences. I was handed my notice. Changed our lives and upset our plans. And now we have decided to move to a better and bigger city. All one some friends have recommended that we move to hamburg.

And nicole cant help her from munich she is currently on Maternity Leave but while her job at the travel agency still be available for her later. Orders will remain closed for longer as will the psychological borders in peoples minds i dont think it will be so easy in the future for those large numbers of refugees to migrate fundable. 5 years after the crisis in the greek refugee camp morea. Thousands of people are still waiting at europes external borders hoping for asylum. We finally get a message from abdul county we learn from kurdish television that a few weeks ago he became a father again he remarried in 2017 and via mobile phone we finally reached him in and. When the new baby came i was very surprised. I couldnt believe it. It was like a huge shock. I didnt know whether to be happy or sad or to cry i didnt understand what was happening. When you lose your own child. And i hope you never experience Something Like that. Its a very strange feeling to have lost a child and then to have a new baby. But sometimes he will send me a video of him to the baby and singing to the baby and sometime when i open him he will be like. No other because the baby is crying.
