- On a Thursday afternoon during his first trip to Washington, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz held a meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump inside the White House.
- Merz's visit followed a complex background of trans-Atlantic tensions and recent German elections where U.S. figures controversially supported the far-right AfD party.
- During the meeting, Merz emphasized Germany's increased role in defense and gave Trump a framed copy of his grandfather’s bilingual birth certificate as a gift.
- Merz stated on German public television that Trump’s focus is firmly on “America first” in all aspects, and recounted that during their interaction, Trump complimented him by saying he was agreeable to work with, even if challenging at times.
- Merz and Trump will meet again at the mid-June G-7 summit in Canada and later at the NATO summit in The Hague, which could shape future trans-Atlantic relations.
