Practical support
Interior Ministry checks the recording of children from the Middle East
The cities of Hanover and Düsseldorf want to take up needy children from Gaza and Israel. But this is only possible if the federal government creates the legal requirements. Does he do that?
The Federal Ministry of the Interior has reluctantly responded to the announcement of the cities of Hanover and Düsseldorf to want to take children from the Gaza Strip and Israel.
“The feasibility of such initiatives depends crucially on the security situation, the possibility of departure and other factors,” said a spokesman at the request of the German press agency. Specific projects are currently being examined with partners. “The expansion of medical aid on site and in a regional nearby stands in the main focus.”
Two state capitals in the starting blocks
After Hanover, Düsseldorf had also promised to take children from the Gaza Strip and Israel, who are particularly in need of protection or traumatized. With regard to the announcement of the Lower Saxony capital, the Mayor of Düsseldorf said Stephan Keller (CDU): “We also want to take up this strong and deeply human gesture in Düsseldorf.”
The city of Hanover had already announced on Thursday to record up to 20 children. Mayor Belit Onay (Greens) said that up to 20 inaugurty acceptance places were currently available. An expansion is conceivable, for example through guest or foster families. According to the mayor, other cities are also interested in participation in similar programs.

What hurdles does the federal government have to eliminate?
The Greens appealed to the federal government to make this help possible. The city can ensure accommodation and accompaniment on site, but need political support from the main page for entry procedures, selection and medical coordination.
In Düsseldorf, the concrete scope of help is still unclear. “We want to determine the chances of realizing our project in the coming week,” says a statement distributed by the city administration. In addition to Keller, this was signed by Mayor Clara Gerlach (Greens) and Mayor candidate Fabian Zachel (SPD).
“If we have questions of attitude and humanity, we are together in Düsseldorf across party borders,” they emphasized there. The first talks have already been held – among other things with the Jewish community and the district of Düsseldorf Muslims.
