French politicians are hostile against the French and the French are complaining because of the Coronavirus in the Saarland. “I know a lot of people in my constituency who are very upset about the Germans, who have more than snide remarks about the French made,” said Christophe Arend, a member of Parliament from Forbach to Paris, the newspaper “Le Parisien” on Monday. French cross-border commuters are dealt with in your German companies, “like lepers”. In German, living in France, but in Germany, it was similar. Some cross-border commuters, would be cast in Germany from the shops or tank.

the mayor of The border municipality of Gersheim, Michael Clivot, had already at the end of March in a video message to hostile condemnation. It had “made a certain amount of hostility towards our French friends wide,” said Clivot in it. The Saarland, but the majority of solidarity, friendship and collegial, and against such excesses, emphasized the mayor then on the weekend on Facebook. The supply of French patients was “a true act of solidarity.” “And this solidarity, let us Individual not make a mess,” wrote Clivot. Oliver Dietze/dpa

Germany’s foreign Minister Heiko Maas (SPD) had condemned hostility on the weekend. “It hurts to be offended to see how our French Friends because Covid-19 with us, in part and addressed,” he wrote on Twitter. Would not the. “We’re in the same boat!”, he added. “This apology is welcome, it shows that Germany takes the complaints of French citizens very seriously,” responded Arend on Maas’ Tweet.

The Robert Koch Institute had declared in March, the Germany border Region Grand-Est to the area at risk. This had irritated the French.
