Russian - Ukraine crisis. News in brief. Monday 13 March. [Ukrainian sources] Empty Pragmatic Merkel takes on the unpredictable Trump (Financial Times)

Pragmatic Merkel takes on the unpredictable Trump (Financial Times) 

As the leaders of US and Germany meet, questions remain over how they can find common ground

As a young woman growing up in Communist East Germany, Angela Merkel dreamt of visiting the US “where”, as she later said, “the air is full of the spirit of freedom and independence”. When the Berlin Wall came down, she finally achieved her ambition by taking a holiday in California. She has returned many times since but when the German chancellor visits Washington on Tuesday to meet Donald Trump it is in profoundly different circumstances.

The president, for his part, has repeatedly challenged her approach by pledging to put “America first” and accused the chancellor in his election campaign of “ruining Germany” via an open-door immigration policy which he dubbed a “catastrophic mistake”.

But on the eve of the summit there was some thawing of relations. Mr Trump’s officials said the president wanted to ask Ms Merkel for her views on Ukraine and how to handle Vladimir Putin, Russia’s president, while Berlin indicated that the cautious Ms Merkel will avoid confrontation in Washington and instead seek common ground.

“She is a pragmatist,” says a government adviser. “She will approach Trump in a pragmatic way.”

‘A mass of testosterone’

Ms Merkel, the EU’s dominant leader, arrives in Washington with a bag of troubles — Russian belligerence, Islamist terrorism, Middle East instability, migration and populist-inspired divisions in Europe....................
