On 19 July 2018 Thomson Reuters Foundation reported: In the light-flooded reception of a community centre in east Berlin, Syrians -- whose first language is Arabic -- practised German, their conversation occasionally punctuated by laughter as they stumbled over a word or mixed up languages. With an influx of more than 1.6 million asylum seekers into Germany since 2014, mainly from the Middle East and Africa, integration is a hot political issue for Chancellor Angela Merkel ...
