Angela Merkel reacts to Donald Trump as elected President
Ladies and gentlemen.
I congratulate the winner of the presidential election of the United States Donald Trump on his victory in the election.
The United States is an old and honourable Democracy.
This year’s election campaign was a special one with partially hard to bear confrontation.
So, I like the most of you, was looking forward to the result of the election with a strong interest.
Who the American people, in the free and fair elections, vote for as their President, has an impact far beyond the borders of the US?
We Germans have no deeper bond to any other country outside of the EU than the US.
The one who reigns this great country (the US) with its enormous economic power, military potential, and cultural influence, carries a responsibility that can be felt everywhere in the world.
The American people have decided that for the next four years Donald Trump shall carry that responsibility.
Germany and America are connected through values: Democracy, Freedom, respect for the rights and dignity of men, independent of their origin, the colour of skin, religion, gender, sexual orientation, or political attitude.
Because of these values, I refer close cooperation of the upcoming president of the United States, Donald Trump.
The partnership with the USA remains a pillar for German foreign politics to master the big challenges of our time: the strive for economic and social welfare, the effort for a far-sighted climate politics, the fight against terrorism, poverty, hunger, and disease.
Commitment to Peace and Freedom in Germany, Europe and the World.
I Thank you.
