Angela Merkel: Immigration

German Leader Dept: So when German leader, Angela Merkel, said last weekend that her country's approach to multiculturalism -- known disparagingly as multi-kulti -- has "utterly failed" it caught international attention more firmly than would similar words from other European leaders, according to Vancouver Sun. Across Europe multiculturalism and integration of immigrants has failed just as surely as in Germany and the time has not arrived when a German chancellor can talk about immigration and ethnic divides without it arousing anxiety and old fears throughout Europe and beyond. But Germany's failure to either integrate its 16 million immigrants and particularly the four million Turks, or enfold these people in a multicultural embrace is far from unique. As reported in the news.
