According to crime statistics, violent crimes are increasing significantly in Germany, especially among minors and people without a German passport. What helps against this is not more repression, but something else.
The numbers give no reason for Sunday speeches. According to the police crime statistics, which will be presented in Berlin on Tuesday, the number of registered violent crimes in Germany increased disproportionately in 2023. Almost ten percent more knife attacks and a good 17 percent more robberies than in the previous year. Underage suspects have become particularly conspicuous, but also people who do not have a German passport and are suspected of a crime. This is a warning signal.
