City of Oldenburg to Accept Refugees from Moria
In a humanitarian gesture, ten cities across Germany have extended their offers to accommodate more refugees, joining forces to provide dignified living conditions for asylum seekers in Europe. The latest cities to join this collective effort are Göttingen, Hannover, and Oldenburg.
The mayors of these cities have not specified whether the housing provided will be permanent or temporary. However, they have urged the federal government not to wait for a European solution but to enable the direct intake of people from the refugee camp in Moria, Greece.
The offer comes amidst ongoing concerns about the living conditions in the Moria camp. The mayors believe that their offers send a signal of humanitarian responsibility, echoing the stance of Mayor Jürgen Krogmann of Oldenburg, who stated that the intake of refugees in Oldenburg would be manageable, with the number being up to ten people.
Mayor Krogmann, along with nine other German mayors, co-signed a letter offering to take in refugees from the Moria camp. He believes that this offer sends a strong signal of Germany's commitment to humanitarian responsibility.
The federal government has yet to respond to these offers. The initial offer from Germany was addressed to Chancellor Angela Merkel and Interior Minister Seehofer, and it included a commitment to accept 1,553 recognized refugees chosen by UNHCR. However, the specific cities involved in this initial offer, besides Göttingen, Hannover, and Oldenburg, have not been explicitly named in the provided search results.
This humanitarian gesture is part of a broader effort aimed at providing dignified accommodation for asylum seekers in Europe. The mayors hope that their offers will contribute to improving the living conditions of refugees in the Moria camp and set an example for other countries to follow.
