Over the deadly Christmas attack launched on a Chritmas market in Berlin by a Tunisian jihadist, Anis Amri, the Prime minister of Tunisia, Youssef Chahed, has dismissed German claims that his country has been slow to take back failed asylum seekers from Europe.

According to Ceoafrica, German chancellor, Angela Merkel is expected to press him on the matter during talks today in Berlin.

Anis Amri had been denied asylum in Germany six months before killing 12 people in the attack and Mr Chahed told reporters that Tunisia had made no mistakes.
