Tusk: Germany's approach to migration to impact the future of Europe

Donald Tusk, the President of the European Council claimed that the German government with Angela Merkel and its policy towards immigration from Syria and Africa will have the biggest impact the future of the European continent. "European future will depend to a large degree on Germany's approach to the migration crisis," stated Tusk in his speech at Die Europa Rede, Berlin. Tusk also said that Germany should take care of European borders "bravely and without any historical complexes." He explained that Germany is currently governed by people who understand that it pays off to rate solidarity as highly as national interests. "I want to say that in today's Europe, it is Angela Merkel who has understood the meaning of solidarity. Solidarity as an ability to sacrifice part of one's own interest for the common good, which is Europe. Or for the good of the people in need, that is the refugees," Tusk pointed out. Donald Tusk gave his speech with regard to the commemoration of the anniversary of  the fall of the Berlin Wall, which happened on the night of November 9 and November 10, 1989.
