Merkel denies Germany "encouraged yet more migrants"

"The world said that was a nice gesture, and that came from people's hearts," she said.

"If we start having to apologize for showing a friendly face in emergencies, then that isn't my country," said Merkel.

The decision "to let in migrants who had piled up in Hungary was right, but it was also natural then to consider how to manage the situation to ensure proper registration of newcomers," she has been quoted as saying.

Merkel also announced today that Germany and Austria agreed, in a conference call with EC President Donald Tusk, that a special summit of the EU on the refugee crisis should be held next week.

She also said that Germany, Austria, and Sweden - who have so far received the greatest number of refugees from Asia, the Middle East, and Africa - "cannot solve this situation alone."
