GERMANY-EUROPE-MIGRANTS-ASYLUM

German Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere (L) and Roger Lewentz, Interior Minister of the southwestern federal state of Rhineland-Palatinate, talk as they take the funicular over the river Rhine to the Ehrenbreitstein fortress in Koblenz, western Germany, where is taking place a meeting of the country's state interior ministers on December 3, 2015. Germany will toughen its screening process for all people seeking asylum and refugee status, de Maiziere said, as the country expects up to one million newcomers this year.
