German Chancellor Angela Merkel has just won herself a lot of new fans. This week’s announcement that Germany would no longer be holding Syrian refugees subject to the Dublin Regulation – meaning that they can stay in Germany, and won’t be sent back to the EU country they first entered – has earned her and her country countless declarations of love from Syrians on social media.









In German: "We love you!" In Arabic: "Angela Merkel deserves thanks for suspending the Dublin Regulation. I would love to meet her some day"
