German's chancellor, Angela Merkel has topped Forbes list again as the most powerful woman in the world, beating the likes of Hilary Clinton and the Queen.
"If there is a single leader able to defy existential economic and political challenges to the European Union, from edges and core, it has been German Chancellor Angela Merkel,"
"But her latest act may be the boldest. By opening Germany's borders to over 1 million immigrants from Syria and other Muslim countries in the last several years, Merkel has decided to wield her power with the most curious of geopolitical strategies: sheer humanism" - Forbes
