"Images of catastrophes, war and terror reached us almost daily." Many compatriots are directly affected and fear for friends or relatives.
"The ongoing war in Ukraine, the heinous terror of Hamas against the people of Israel and Gaza, the blind hatred towards Jews here in Germany too - all of this moves and touches us, worries us and challenges us deeply," the Christian Democrat emphasized. "Peace on earth and among men," is written in the Christmas Gospel. "Let us all contribute to bringing this promise to our world."
