According to the fourth report on Germany published on Thursday by the Council of Europe Advisory Committee on the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities, the level of racism and xenophobia in Germany is rising, Sputnik News reports.
"There have been worrying developments as regards public manifestations of racism and xenophobia. Despite counter-demonstrations as well as statements of condemnation by the authorities, manifestations of antisemitism, anti-Gypsyism, and anti-Muslim and anti-immigrant sentiments are reported to be rising, as well as attacks against asylum-seekers," the report said.
The committee called on the German authorities to do everything possible to stop racism, intolerance and right-wing extremism in the country.
