On Monday morning, the president of the Conference on Jewish Material Claims against Germany, Rabbi Julius Berman, announced that negotiations with the German government had been completed, and that and agreement had been reached on behalf of Holocaust survivors who had fled Germany as children as part of the “Kindertransport” in the 1930s. Under the terms of the agreement, Berman said, the Kindertransport refugees will get compensation from the German government.

“We never lost hope that this moment will come, and we would be able to bring about this historical announcement,” Berman said. “The agreement was achieved on the occasion that marks 80 years since the beginning of the rescue operation “Kindertransport”. It will provide compensation to the Holocaust survivors who were children on those rescue trains.”

The Kindertransport Fund will be opened by the Claims Conference on January 1, 2019. As of this date, it will be possible to submit requests for compensation, free charges, in Israel as well, without the assistance of any party.
