The US military has achieved a decisive blow against al-Qaeda with its commando action against Osama Bin Laden and his killing.
Angela Merkel
Image
I said, yet again, for Germany, Europe is not only indispensable, it is part and parcel of our identity. We've always said German unity, European unity and integration, that's two parts of one and the same coin. But we want, obviously, to boost our competitiveness.
Angela Merkel
Image
I believe that we will move forward a little tomorrow but I have my doubts that we will achieve a result.
Angela Merkel
Image
I don't carry any early childhood trauma around with me, if that's what you're hinting at. The story of the bicycles - and there were three of them which were stolen from me - I've dealt with it well.
Angela Merkel
Image
Personally, I think that for example the chemical directive in its present form does too much damage to the chemical industry - especially the medium sized businesses - and will hurt our worldwide competitiveness.
Angela Merkel
Image
The land of unlimited opportunity was for me, for a long time, impossible to reach. The wall, barbed wire and the order to shoot at those who tried to leave limited my access to the free world.
Angela Merkel
Image
If I run a time-limited test program, I'll never discover whether markets with additional employment truly exist. A solution in the low-wage sector cannot be a limited special program.
Angela Merkel
Image
In Europe it is particularly important that we build good relations to everyone who holds political responsibility because Europe can only be build together.
Angela Merkel
Image
I would like to see Russia develop as democratically as possible. But when we judge Russia we must also consider where the country is coming from. Our concepts of democracy can't just be schematically transferred. However, I do admit that I'm concerned about some recent developments, such as the new laws against non-governmental organizations.

Ladies, it is not your education, status or personality that has brought you here but the elegance of God which was still and still working upon you.
Angela Merkel
Image
I think that the EU with the Lisbon agenda has put the right emphasis on growth and employment.
Angela Merkel
Image
To be serious, if we were only interested in earning big money then a politician would have to go and work in industry.
Angela Merkel
Image
No bank should be allowed to become so big that it can blackmail governments.
Angela Merkel
Image
We have freedom to demonstrate in Germany, but there is no place for incitement and insulting people who come to us from other countries.
Angela Merkel
Image
We have [unfriendly policies] here in Europe, too. We have them here in Germany, too. And to take up where the president left off, digitization is in a way a disruptive force, a disruptive technological force that brings about deep-seated change, transformation of a society.
Angela Merkel
Image
Global climate change is one of the greatest challenges facing humanity in the twenty-first century.
Angela Merkel
Image
If Europe today accounts for just over 7 per cent of the world's population, produces around 25 per cent of global GDP and has to finance 50 per cent of global social spending, then it's obvious that it will have to work very hard to maintain its prosperity and way of life.
Angela Merkel
Image
Eurobonds are absolutely wrong. In order to bring about common interest rates, you need similar competitiveness levels, similar budget situations. You don't get them by collectivizing debts.
Angela Merkel
Image
We can't constantly explain to our voters that taxpayers have to be on the hook for certain risks, rather than those who make a lot of money taking those risks.
Angela Merkel
Image
My life changed completely in 1989 with the fall of the wall.
