FRANCO-GERMAN DRAMA: Estranged Macron and Scholz To Meet, Try to End the Rift Between Them – Polish PM Tusk Will Also Participate
The fact that the relationship between French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz is terrible has long been the worst-kept secret in Europe.
The alliance between the historical foes France and Germany is the cornerstone of Western European Defense strategy, and the patent lack of understanding between the highly unpopular leaders Macron and Scholz is widely seen as a major problem.
To try to remedy the present state of affairs, Macron will travel to Berlin on Friday (15) to meet Chancellor Scholz.
They aim to reduce tensions over Ukraine which have become so very public in recent weeks.
Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk will also be present in a second meeting later in the day.
