EVIAN – German Chancellor Friedrich Merz had a belated birthday gift for President Trump: a Germany soccer jersey with the number 47 on the back and “TRUMP” written on it.
Merz gifted it to the president at a meeting Tuesday the G7 leaders were having with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
Before the meeting formally began, Merz made his way to his seat where he picked up the gift and took it to Trump, holding it up to show off the number and presidential name.
Trump appeared to thank him and put the jersey on the table with his things. Trump turned 80 on Sunday and the US is hosting the World Cup soccer championship this year.
