AlHijjah 20, 1436, October 04, 2015, SPA -- Germany is not going to consider weakening its commitment to sheltering asylum seekers, says Chancellor Angela Merkel in a radio interview to be broadcast later Sunday, swatting back calls from a key group in her governing coalition, dpa reported. Merkel told journalists with the programme Interview of the Week on Deutschlandfunk that there would be no changes to Germany's basic law and that Germany would continue to abide by the 1951 Geneva Refugee Convention. However, she did repeat statements that Germany must speed up its asylum processing system and that those migrants who come to Germany and are discovered not be in need of asylum must then be required to leave Germany. The important thing is to review the cases of everyone "even if they have to leave our country again," she said, in the interview, set to air at 0905 GMT.
