In a spirited speech at the Munich Security Conference 2019, German Chancellor stood as a beacon in the struggle for multilateralism and the survival of NATO. Casting gentle shade on US President Donald Trump, Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping, Merkel argued that the rising rivalry between the world's great powers cannot be allowed to escalate into a new Cold War. She also spoke in favor of Germany's controversial Nord Stream gas deal with Russia and called on the world to share the challenges refugees and climate change present to international security.

Lots of Love for Chancellor Angela Merkel of CDU-CSU ruling coalitions of Germany. She totally deserves and I think I do believe that she should be the only person, leader that gets and becomes winner of two times for Peace Noble Price.
Long Live Madam Chancellor Angela Merkel;
Long Live Germany;
And Long Live EU, Amen Insha'Allah.
Denki Madam Chancellor Angela Merkel for being so amazing and awesome. One in billions. Genuine, Wise, Humble, Compassionate and Great Leader Madam Chancellor Angela Merkel.

She's to us (as we're her unseen and unknown fans and supporters from all the around the world) Mandela, Gandhi, Kennedy, MLK, Malcolm X, Mrs. Robinson of Former Ireland President, Obama, Mahathir, Abiy Ahmed, and Erdogan.
That's my in opinion and beliefs.
Thanks DW for sharing this wonderful video.

As we see Ivanka Trump is more concerned about her hair than about global safety and partnership. What a message to the world that this con-lady is representing the US. Ridiculous.

Agenda that is a child of Washington's political economy is for Europe, and for Germany in particular extremely expensive. Attack on Russian economy since 2014 backfired grotesquely, nobody is publishing analyzes regarding the cost to EU, but for sure, market shrunk dramatically and there are no prospect to recover even a fraction, it is gone for good.  Lessons learned, we can be assured that analyst and strategist calculated annual losses, these are extrapolated in perpetuum, the same goes for Washington push to incapacitate Iran, Middle east generally, Washington might gain but Europe and all others will lose, if this is the name of the game, EU would lose enormously by playing the tune, and all eager Chinese (industries of far east) and Russian enterprise (eurasians except EU) would quickly find the empty space, a void to fill in. If Europe continues on this path dictated by Washington without protecting its long term interest, there will be no marked but only in US which will shrink for sure, grip by Washington over EU economy will be overwhelming, so the manoeuvring space to EU economy will shrink by potential of 4 billion people or more and diminish more and more...

Merkel is the only one who provides some resistance to American imperialism. That should encourage other European nations to be stronger.

America is the most agressive brutal evil country in the whole world... It was-only in South America- involved in more then a dozen violent regime changes.... The USA has to stop cause their policy is moren and more coming to the edge of a new Nucleair war which will destroy the USA totally.

Trump and his tariffs believe that German cars that are made in South Carolina are a threat to the national security of the US?????  It's BMW's largest plant!  The look of ignorance on Ivanka Trump's face while the rest of the attendee's gave Merkel a standing ovation was a look of embarrassment!  Noticeably, the Russian and Chinese officials also remained quietly seated.  I'm sure when VP Pence announced he was there on behalf of President Trump and was met with the silence of crickets, wasn't the proud moment for the Trump crime family!  Trumps foreign policies have been an embarrassment!  Our allies are being disrespected one by one!

The US should copy its president and go happily golfing. They don’t have the faintest realistic idea of the rest of the world. US became an island, and, thanks trump, a banana republic

Merkel can talk in wonderous circles. So much for German efficiency.
