German Police Investigate Viral Video of Racist Song and Nazi Salutes on Sylt; Scholz Responds
May 25, 2024, 02:51 PM
German police are investigating a viral video showing young adults singing racist lyrics and performing Nazi salutes at a club on the northern island of Sylt. The video, which is 15 seconds long, has caused significant concern in Germany. Chancellor Olaf Scholz has expressed his concern and has been called to comment on the incident. The song, which includes the lyrics 'foreigners out' and 'Germany for the Germans,' has been intentionally spread by right-wing accounts online to propagate a narrative of racial superiority. The incident occurred on the terrace of an expensive restaurant on the North Sea island. Authorities are working to identify and prosecute those involved.
