2016年，對德國來說是災難不斷的一年，恐攻頻傳，原本被看好即將在2017年四度連任的德國總理梅克爾，也因為對難民抱持開放態度而備受德國國民質疑。
It was without doubt that Islamist terrorists have been targeting Germans for many years. It was a despicable one that these attacks were carried out by individuals who came here ostensibly to seek safe haven and then received help and support. We are stronger when we are united. In the coming year, if necessary, the German government will quickly introduce and enact additional legal and policy measures.
德國，毫無疑問地，多連來已成為伊斯蘭恐怖分子的目標。那些宣稱來德國尋求避風港，也確實獲得我們幫助和支持的人，卻對德國發動了恐攻，這種行為令人不齒。（但是）只要我們團結，就會變得更強大。未來的一年，如果有必要，德國政府將會很快地引入、制定額外法條及政治措施。
