Meanwhile, Swedish media reports accused the police of trying to cover up the fact that immigrants were behind most holiday attacks there. National police chief Dan Eliasson said Monday the allegations will be investigated.

"We have to get to the bottom of this. If there is any veracity to this information, it has to be remedied and we have to see if someone has done wrong," said Eliasson.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel said the uncontrolled immigration flow has to be stemmed.

"We have to intensify the fight against the causes that make people flee. And then we will be able, and that is what we want for this year, to noticeably reduce the number of refugees. That is clear. Because we also have the task to integrate them. That is what everyone talks about here -- what would be the best integration method? And we know, since the terrible events that night in Cologne, that for integration we need the openness of the society, but the refugees also need to be willing to follow our rules and values as well," said Merkel.

For some people who grew up in a culture of chaos and violence, it may be the hardest part of the integration.
