🇺🇸🇩🇪⚡- "It's an honor to have you here, as you know the Chancellor just won a great election, a very strong election.

He's a very respected man. We've been on the phone many times, talking about some of the problems of the world outside of Germany. It's very sad what's going on, we both feel that way.

[It's sad] what's going on with Russia and Ukraine. We talked about other things too, buying particularly Russia and Ukraine. We'd like to see it end, maybe it will end.

But we got some news that there will be some fighting. Something happened a couple of days ago [Ukraine's Operation Spider Web], and now Russia will do a return. The Chancellor is unhappy about it, I'm unhappy about it. But I think eventually we're going to be successful, and stopping the bloodshed. It's pure bloodshed, 5,000-6,000 young soldiers a week are being killed. Do you know those numbers," - President Trump.

"Yes, we know the numbers," - Chancellor Merz.

"They're staggering. Staggering numbers.

Chancellor I want to congratulate you, and welcome you to the Oval Office. It's an Oval Office that's in very good shape. We like fixing things up, and having them tippy top, like they have in German. They do [have things in top conditions] in Germany very much.

I also had a great election, won everything. Won the popular vote, won all seven swing states. Which is a big deal, it's unusual to do that.

Part of our mandate is we're going to have a great relationship with your country. So I want to thank you very much for being here," - President Trump.
