From staring down Trump to being pecked by parrots – Angela Merkel’s greatest moments

From staring down Trump to being pecked by parrots – Angela Merkel’s greatest moments


Angela Merkel is stepping down as German Chancellor today after 16 years in power, ending a term that has redefined not just the country but also the political make-up of Europe. 

The 67-year-old once dubbed ‘das Mädchen’ (the girl), leaves office as ‘Mutti’ (mother) to the nation, a moniker she earned to reflect her empathetic but also formidable nature.

Merkel became Germany’s first female chancellor on November, 2005, and leaves office as one of its longest serving leaders, finally handing over power to Olaf Scholz and the centre-left Social Democrats.  

Her departure marks the end of an era for Germany which saw the country establish itself as the de-facto leader of Europe, cement its status as an economic super-power, and wield considerable influence on the global stage. 

She served alongside five British prime ministers, four American presidents, four French presidents, and eight Italian premiers. 

Merkel has steered Germany through the 2007 recession and subsequent Greek debt crisis, the 2016 Berlin terror attack, Brexit, Trump’s presidency and Covid – winning widespread praise for her pragmatism and competence, despite the EU hamstringing her vaccine drive.

But her legacy also bears the stain of the 2015 migrant crisis – during which she threw open Europe’s doors to millions of refugees and asylum seekers while infamously declaring ‘we can do this.’

As people poured across the Mediterranean and Europe’s eastern border – including future terror attackers – Merkel watched her approval rating plummet while far-right parties such as the AfD capitalised on anti-migrant sentiment to return to the corridors of power after a decades-long absence. 

During her tenure, Merkel has appeared in many memorable photos. Here MailOnline relives them all, from staring down Trump at the G7, being pecked by parrots and meeting with the Queen at Windsor Castle.

Leader of Europe: Angela Merkel leans on the table with both hands as she and her EU allies confront Donald Trump, who sits with his arms folded in defiance, at the G7 summit in La Malbaie, Quebec, Canada, June 9, 2018. In Trump, Merkel would find an insurmountable opponent and the damage done to relations between Berlin and Washington is still being repaired today. The TV showman was elected on an isolationist mandate, he continually attacked Germany for its meagre military spending and claimed that Berlin was beholden to Moscow because of a proposed new gas pipeline. Their first encounter was brutally awkward, with Merkel offering a ceremonial handshake for the cameras which Trump seemed to spurn. She had tried a charm offensive and failed. After the photographers left, Trump reportedly announced: ‘Angela, you owe me one trillion dollars.’ The pressure continued as world leaders attended the G7 summit in 2018, with Merkel wishing to unite the free world against Vladimir Putin. ‘What good is NATO if Germany is paying Russia billions of dollars for gas and energy? The U.S. is paying for Europe’s protection, then loses billions on Trade. Must pay 2% of GDP IMMEDIATELY, not by 2025,’ Trump tweeted. The president’s tweets exposed a bitter truth for Germany and Europe: they have long relied upon the United States and had allowed their armies to dwindle.

The photo was later used in campaign posters by the CDU, sparking outrage during the federal election campaign of 2009.

'My closest ally': Barack Obama looks relaxed in Merkel's company as she hosts the American leader at Schloss Elmau hotel near Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany, during the G-7 summit, June 8, 2015. By the end of Obama's second term the pair were speaking on the phone once a week and she even appeared to tear up when Obama visited Berlin in late 2016. The pair held a press conference at which Obama called her his 'closest ally' in what was widely interpreted as the passing of the baton of liberal democracy to Germany after Donald Trump won the general election. Obama's final phone call as U.S. President was to Merkel, during which he thanked her for her 'strong, courageous, and steady leadership' and expressed 'appreciation for their personal friendship.'

German Chancellor Angela Merkel feeds Australian lorikeets at Marlow Bird Park in Marlow, Germany, Thursday September 23, 2021. Outgoing Chancellor Angela Merkel provided a rare splash of colour amid Germany's staid election campaign while visiting a bird park where she posed with half a dozen parrots. Not content with the bird feed on offer, one of the rainbow lorikeets took a peck at the long-time German leader's hand, prompting a theatrical scream from Merkel.

Brexit beginnings: David Cameron and Merkel pull faces as they prepare to pose for the 'family photo' at an EU summit in Brussels in December 2015. Some say the chancellor was one of the instigators of Brexit after refusing to throw David Cameron a lifeline on immigration ahead of the referendum. There followed years of wrangling, with both parties failing to compromise and settle on the future relationship between Britain and its biggest trading partner.

Le Grand Séducteur: The famously romantic French President Jacques Chirac looks enamoured as he plants a kiss on Merkel's hand at the chancellery in Berlin, May 3, 2007. At the time Merkel was perhaps underestimated as 'shy' by the French public compared to the 'charmer' Chirac.

East meets West: Merkel purses her lips alongside Vladimir Putin as the pair meet for talks in Dresden, on October 10, 2006. Merkel, who grew up behind the Iron Curtain in Eastern Germany, perhaps knew much more than any of her predecessors about Russian culture. Although deeply strained, the relationship never snapped. As Germany’s Süddeutsche Zeitung newspaper put it ahead of their final meeting in August: 'No other politicians on the global stage have been so good at getting on badly over such a long time as these two.'

Das Mädchen: Merkel as vice-chancellor alongside her former mentor Chancellor Helmut Kohl during a party conference in Dresden, Germany, 16 December 1991. In December 1990, Merkel won a seat in the Bundestag and was appointed minister for women and youth by Chancellor Helmut Kohl in January 1991. Kohl became her political mentor and referred to her as 'mein Madchen' ('my girl'). But over the next decade Merkel would make fools of any who dared underestimate her, becoming Kohl's political executioner and snatching the CDU leadership after a donations scandal.

'We can do this': Merkel poses for a selfie with Anas Modamani, a refugee from Syria, after she visited the AWO Refugium Askanierring shelter for migrants and refugees on September 10, 2015 in Berlin, Germany. Her legacy bears the stain of the 2015 migrant crisis - during which she threw open Europe's doors to millions of refugees and asylum seekers while infamously declaring 'we can do this.' As people poured across the Mediterranean and Europe's eastern border - including future terror attackers - Merkel watched her approval rating plummet while far-right parties such as the AfD capitalised on anti-migrant sentiment to return to the corridors of power after a decades-long absence. Germany still lives in the shadow of that moment - with far-right terror groups and hate crimes on the rise - and must now find a way out without Merkel, who departs with no obvious successor to her legacy.
