Mainz (dpa / lrs) - One year after the attack in Hanau, the Greens in Rhineland-Palatinate advocate expanding research on racism and group-related enmity.

"So far, too little research has been done on this topic in Rhineland-Palatinate," said the Green's top candidate for the state elections, Anne Spiegel, on Thursday in Mainz.

She proposed a regular scientific report on racist acts and attitudes.

Spiegel named the names of Sedat Gürbüz from Hanau killed on February 19, 2020, Koljan Welkow, Fatih Saraçoğlu, Vili Viorel Păun, Gökhan Gültekin, Hamza Kurtović, Ferhat Unvar, Said Nesar Hashemi and Mercedes Kierpacz from Hanau and added: “All of these people were cruelly torn from the middle of life. "

The deep pain of the bereaved on this anniversary can only be guessed at.

Ideologies of inequality, hatred and agitation are consciously used to justify violence.

Therefore, “a shift in discourse to the right” should not be accepted.
