The two world leaders met for the first time on Friday and the meeting was very awkward. During the photo opportunity, journalists requested that the Donald Trump and Germany’s Chancellor, Angela Merkel to shake hands. They made the request several times, Trump acted like he didn't hear them or maybe he truly didn't hear them, but the Chancellor turned towards hi and ked if he wanted a handshake but Trump didn't respond.
He wasn't looking at her at that moment so, again, it's possible he probably didn't hear her because the room was noisy.
Then during the press
conference, Trump repeated his allegations that President Barack Obama
wiretapped his phones and her phone, adding that —"at least we have that
in common," he told Merkel.
He also called a German
newspaper "fake news" after a reporter asked him a question.
He avoided looking at
the German chancellor most of the time.
Merkel,
who has advocated welcoming and resettling refugees even as other European
countries have closed their borders to asylum seekers, tried to appeal to Trump
for more humane immigration policies but Trump literally dodged her appeal.
