In his reply, issued today by the German Embassy in Tunis, to the statement by Minister of Education Mohamed Ali Boughdiri, Peter Prügel, German Ambassador to Tunis, specified that his country “also deplores the suffering of the population of Gaza and the Palestinian victims”. “But our sympathy was with all the victims of this dispute: Palestinian, Israeli and international… because the current escalation was started by a barbaric terrorist attack by Hamas against Israel,” adds the German diplomat. According to the German Embassy, Peter Prügel regrets that this statement was taken up and produced in the media in an incomplete and incorrect manner. “The federal government is engaged at all levels to finding a solution to this conflict and supporting the civilian population of Gaza and, given the dramatic situation, recently increased humanitarian aid to Gaza by 50 million additional euros,” adds the embassy.
