German Chancellor Angela Merkel visited the former nazi concentration camp at Auschwitz for the first time today.
Speaking to a gathering that included former Auschwitz inmates, she said she felt “deep shame in the face of the barbaric crimes committed by Germans here”.
“Nothing can bring back the people who were murdered here… Nothing can reverse the unprecedented crimes committed here,” she said.
“These crimes are and will remain part of German history and this history must be told over and over again.”
