DISINFO: Money to teach children in kindergartens now goes to migrants in Germany

SUMMARY

And in the The German Democratic Republic they also say that kindergartens worked differently. And the early education programme, when in kindergarten, children began to march to sounds from the piano. This actually helps a child to develop. And in modern Germany, there’s no money for that. Why? And that’s where the political slot begins. Because the money goes to migrants.

RESPONSE

Money for kindergartens in Germany has not been reduced in favour of migrants. On the contrary, the government pledged "in order to ensure a good early childhood education, care and education, the federal government supports those in the Kita expansion with massive financial aid. By 2020, 100,000 additional places will be promoted in day nurseries and childcare."This type of claim is a recurrent Russian narrative portraying migrants and refugees as a great source of danger.See similar cases claiming: a rise in German Antisemitism caused by mass immigration and that migrants are responsible for the increase in robberies, murders and rapes in Germany.
