Education Minister Karin Prien: Would Emigrate in Case of AfD Chancellorship - Germany's Education Minister Warns of Rising Antisemitism, Considers Emigration
Federal Education Minister Karin Prien has expressed concern over the safety of Jews and Jewish women in Germany, citing a lack of effective protection from street attacks. Prien, who has Jewish ancestors, has not ruled out emigration to Israel itself, and many Jews in Germany are considering creating financial cushions abroad due to rising antisemitism.
Prien, who grew up in the Netherlands and later moved to Neuwied, Germany, finds it bitter that Jews are held responsible for decisions of the Israeli government due to antisemitic attributions. She believes the German state is failing to protect its Jewish population, a sentiment shared by many Jews in the country. Prien has even suggested that she would consider immigrating if the far-right AfD party were to become the chancellor party.
The rise in antisemitism has led many Jews in Germany to consider creating a financial cushion abroad, with Israel often being a top destination. Prien, who has not publicly indicated that she currently lives outside Germany or has moved to Israel, has not specified her plans for immigration but has made it clear that she is considering it.
The concerns raised by Karin Prien reflect a growing unease among Jews in Germany about their safety and future in the country. While Prien has not ruled out immigration, her focus remains on pushing for better protection and understanding for the Jewish community in Germany.
