It has been ten years since German Chancellor Angela Merkel made her famous "Wir schaffen das" ("We can do this") statement regarding her decision to accept hundreds of thousands of refugees into Germany. In an interview with the public broadcaster ARD that will be featured in a documentary airing Monday, Merkel reflected on her decision, which she said was guided by humanitarian principles and human dignity. "It is a process. But so far, we have achieved a lot," Merkel said. "And what still needs to be done must continue to be done," she added.
