Trump’s rise leaves the world in Merkel’s hands: Burman
Toronto Star


Quote:
With Donald Trump’s unlikely election as the next U.S. president, Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany — a scientist by training, fluent in Russian and born 62 years ago in communist East Germany — is increasingly being seen as the last leader left in defence of the post-Second World War international order.

That was evident on Thursday in Berlin. The dramatic, somewhat emotional final meeting between Merkel and President Obama was a poignant and historic encounter.
