Nürtingens OB Fridrich: Immigration and Integration need clear solutions!

Nürtingen, Deutschland - A shocking crime shakes Nürtingen! The body of a 66-year-old woman was recovered from the Neckar two weeks ago and the city is in shock. The suspect, a 37-year-old Iranian, lived in a refugee accommodation in Oberboihingen. Mayor Johannes Fridrich commented and appealed to the citizens of respecting the investigation and not drawing premature conclusions.

The killing triggered the outrage in the municipality of waves. Fridrich emphasizes that it is important to take people seriously. While some citizens from other federal states send racist emails, the majority remains open and integrated in Nürtingen. But the problems associated with immigration and integration must not be ignored. Fridrich demands clear solutions from the federal and state governments because the municipalities' capacities are already at the limit. The city has invested millions of euros in refugee accommodation, which leads to a lack of resources for other important projects.

Integration work in Nürtingen faces enormous challenges. There is a lack of accommodation, language courses and medical care. Fridrich warns that the quality of the integration suffers when too many refugees arrive at the same time. The need for support is enormous and the volunteers reach their limits. Despite the efforts for a well -functioning network, the situation is tense. Fridrich demands better support from politics to preserve acceptance among the population and to successfully design the integration.

The city of Nürtingen relies on social advice in refugee accommodation to help the refugees with existential questions such as living space and work. A psychosocial network is intended to offer traumatized refugees. But the financing remains a challenge, and the city administration is fighting to provide the urgently needed resources. The situation remains tense and the citizens of Nürtingen hope for quick solutions and an end to violence.
