For the second straight day, the U.S. president waded into German domestic policy on Tuesday via his favored medium of Twitter. He asserted that crime in Germany has increased by more than 10 percent “since migrants were accepted,” saying that “officials do not want to report these crimes.”

Other countries are even worse, he said, drawing a link to the political battle in Washington over immigration and coupling his criticism with an attack on Democrats who he said “don’t care about crime and want illegal immigrants.”

Merkel was asked about Trump’s latest intervention during a joint press conference with French President Emmanuel Macron outside Berlin on Tuesday, when they two leaders announced measures aimed at a Europe-wide reform of the migration system.

“My answer is this: the interior minister recently presented federal crime statistics and they speak for themselves,” Merkel said, describing “a slightly positive trend.”

“Of course, we always need to do more to fight crime,” she added. “But the numbers certainly were encouraging to keep working along those lines to further reduce crime.”............................................
