"This was terrorism, terrorism against us all," Mr Scholz said during a visit to Solingen on Monday.

Mr Scholz also said his government would have to do "everything we can to ensure that those who cannot and should not stay here in Germany are repatriated and deported" and that deportations would be sped up if necessary.

He also promised to tighten laws on weapons ownership "very quickly".

The political ramifications of the tragedy started reverberating across Germany as soon as officials confirmed the suspect in Friday’s deadly stabbings was a Syrian refugee.
