President trump said that he would take a decision on the fate of the Treaty of Paris next week.

“The days when we could completely rely on others leave. I felt it myself in the last few days,” said Merkel at a campaign rally in Munich.

Angela Merkel also said that the priority now is to Berlin relations with the new President of France Emmanuel Macron.
