France has been forced to take care of victims of terrorist attacks for more than Germany: first, in January 2015, Islamists killed entire editorial staff of satire magazine Charlie Hebdo, n in November 2015 more than 130 people died in a Stop at Paris concert Hall Bataclan. And in summer of 2016, a lorry driver killed 86 people on seaside promenade of Nice and injured hundreds more. Already last year, victims and ir relatives received more than 30 million euros, sum is still to rise. The neighbouring country has also established a permanent network of psychologists and contact persons for victims of terrorist attacks.
So far, members of Breitscheidplatz are very dissatisfied with reaction of federal government. In an open letter to Chancellor Merkel, y regretted that Merkel had not condolences eir in person or in writing almost a year after attack. “We believe that y will not do justice to ir office,” wrote relatives. They demanded faster help, central and sensitive contacts. At least one single point of contact should come after will of big parties.
