Neue Bromance Merz und Trump

Rixa Fürsen analysiert zusammen mit der Washington-Korrespondentin der WELT, Stefanie Bolzen, das Aufeinandertreffen des Kanzlers mit dem US-Präsidenten im Weißen Haus.

Deutlich konstruktiver, entspannter und freundschaftlicher war der Termin, als in Deutschland zuvor befürchtet worden war.

Die beiden besprechen, was Merz erreicht hat, warum Deutschland und seine Rolle bei Trump trotzdem nur eine untergeordnete Rolle gespielt haben – und was durch das Treffen künftig für NATO, Ukraine und Handel herausspringen könnte.

LP Staff Writers

Writers at Lord’s Press come from a range of professional backgrounds, including history, diplomacy, heraldry, and public administration. Many publish anonymously or under initials—a practice that reflects the publication’s long-standing emphasis on discretion and editorial objectivity. While they bring expertise in European nobility, protocol, and archival research, their role is not to opine, but to document. Their focus remains on accuracy, historical integrity, and the preservation of events and individuals whose significance might otherwise go unrecorded.
